As we all know now hindsight is a wnderfull thing but to do what they did with what they had against the armour that they didn't know of or was not told is history but hero's one and all god bless them we look back with tears in our eyes for the young men that never came home❤

Interesting to see how fast the Cromwell cruiser tank was. It shows this tank was really valuable at exploiting break outs and out flanking enemy forces.

It is astonishing during the Western Allies' Operation Market-Garden that _ad-hoc_ German forces, i.e., improvised "battle-groups," centered around a few experienced, battle-hardened, and savvy army veterans but otherwise comprising army stragglers, Luftwaffe ground crews, teenage Kriegmarine cadets, more teenage boys of the _Hitlerjugend,_ and others, many of whom, if not most, had never been trained as infantry or even fired a shot in battle before Arnhem, could fight a British Airborne Division, the infantry elite of the British Army, to an absolute standstill and stop it in its tracks. It was certainly an extraordinary and tremendous feat of arms by these improvised, _ad-hoc_ German formations. The Germans truly were remarkable soldiers. Max Hastings in his excellent book _Armageddon: the Battle for Germany, 1944-1945_ gives a searing and comprehensive account of Operation Market-Garden and the Battle of Arnhem and in this chapter's source notes on the battle he gives acknowledgment to Robert J. Kershaw's _"It Never Snows in September": the German View of MARKET-GARDEN and the Battle of Arnhem, September 1944_ which now I shall have to read as I am so intrigued by the Germans' operations at Arnhem. I hope it gives a good, detailed, and comprehensive account of how the Germans accomplished this great feat of arms and triumphed at Arnhem with such hurriedly formed _ad-hoc,_ improvised formations of mostly untrained personnel so late in the war.

Very well said sir but don’t forget the British airborne radios didn’t work so there was no cohesion and they have done so things might have been different

But taking nothing away from the German army they were probably the greatest fighting army ever when one takes into consideration what they face on the stone from unbelievable
