Unable to attend on the Friday, but will be around on the Saturday both in Oosterbeek and Ginkelse Heide. Will put some photos up but here is a few from 7th Sept Airborne walk.
The BBC have written about two soldiers who took part in Market Garden, who were recently identified and reburied. As it happens two of our friends have attended the service that took part today. Here is the link to the article.
Recent couple of episodes from Dan Snow’s History Hit podcast covers Market Garden and has Al Murray guesting as he has written a book out titled Arnhem Black Tuesday
Very impressed. You were in the enclosed area in Oosterbeek.
As always very moving weekend.
No we was outside the perimeter, but got a good spot. The standing ovation to the KOSB Soldier when he walk down to lay a wreath was very moving. There can't be many survivors left. I couldn't post it on here as the file was too big.

Would like a photo if you can, if not don't worry.
The people of Oosterbeek and Arnhem still remember Operation Market Garden and the soldiers who fell and those that survived.
