Comments: Fascinating site, Andries... I loved all the info. I can tell you are as fascinated with the topic as I am. I bought the game, A Bridge too Far and I was surfing that games website and I followed the link to your great site. You and I are about the same age. (I'm 36.) I remember the great movie, A bridge too far. It must have been fun as a young lad and having an interest in military history and living so close to such a pivitol battle in WWII. Best Wishes and Happy Holidays.....John MacLean

Comments: I have been researching WWII airborne history for many years and have have friends and acquaintances who served at Arnhem (e.g. Bill Blair, Border Regt)and who served with Canadian airborne units (1 Cdn Para Bn & FSSF) and with S.O.,E. I am active with military vehicle preservation and have a 1944 Willys MB jeep that came out of Norway and appears to have served with the British Army. There is some physical evidence that it MAY have served with the British Airborne. Did 1 AB Div leave their vehicles behind in Norway when they left in 1945? It is now being done up as per 1 Cdn Para Bn (same markings as 3 Para Bn i.e. 57 on red unit sign & Pegasus fmtn sign) for 1944-45. I also have two folding BSA 'airborne bicycles'-- one complete as it left the army, and the other a restored frame. Interested in seeing or acquiring WWII British airborne trailer (10 Cwt Lt. Wt.) I look forward to spending time exploring this website! I found the e-mail address of one collector friend (Phil Waterman) on your guestpage already -- a good start! Cheers!

Comments: My father was in the 82nd Airborne and participated in Market Garden. He was flown in on a glider that was shot down and crashed short of their objective although despite a couple broken ribs he did make it to his unit a few days later. He told me many stories from the war. He said he was active for 18 days before he was wounded. A German 88 hit the jeep he was in and he was a disabled veteran all his life. He died 3 years ago. We do have a photo journal of the 82nd Airborne that has pictures of Market Garden and actually has a photo of him in it. I will look forward to seeing more of the American involvement it your web page. Thanks.

Comments: The site looks great, and the info is good as well. However, there is one comment I wish to make: many resources about the Battle of Arnhem in my opinion pay too little attention to the German units fighting in the Battle. The history of the II SS Pz Korps is widely spread, the Krafft Battalion is often referred to, but then it all ends. But so many other units fought there!! I know it is all very vague and complicated, but a good account about the German units would really be appreciated. But your site really is great and I wish you success with its further development.

Comments: Your homepage was excellent!!! well done! I was looking for this info because I started doing my family tree, and my Uncle was in the Arnhem war. In reading your pages I noticed the name General Urquhart, well not many men with this name and I have a medal, not much info on my Uncle, Would you be able to tell me how I can tell if the General Urquhart was my Uncle? I would sure appreciate it, in return if this is my Uncle I can send pictures of him.... Thanks Debbie

Comments: I am looking for two books regarding Operation Market Garden and have had no luck so far. Can anyone help who may have a copy or know where to obtain one. The Devil's Birthday: The Bridges to Arnhem by Geoffrey Powell and Four stars of Hell by Laurence Critchell. My brother Robert Kester was in Company I, 501st PIR 101st Airborne Division who parachuted into Holland in Operation Market Garden on 17th September 1944. He was killed that day at Veghel Railroad Station. If anyone reading this was there that day in Veghel would like to correspond with them. Kind Regards and keep up this great site dedicated to all those brave men who took part in Operation Market Garden.

Comments: Congratulations to a job well done! This is by far the best "market garden site" I´ve ever seen! I´m a sergeant in the Royal Swedish marines and visited Holland and Nijmegen during the 4-daagse in 1997. We then visited some of the landing zones, cemetaries and so on. We also had a briefing on the Waal crossing sice it is not to far from our own activities. Your site answers the questions I never got to asked when I was there. Thank you.

Comments: I noticed that you included the U.S. Airforce as one of the involved forces ... You may well know this already, but the U.S. Airforce wasn't created until 1948. The U.S. Army Air Force, however, was involved in Operation Market Garden, as were elements of thearmy's 101st Airborne. Looks like a good site you've got here, and I thought you might appreciate the clarification. p.s. I think Monty sucked as a general, but that's strictly a personal opinion.
