Скачать или смотреть Oosterbeek Arnhem war Cemetery | Operation Market Garden

In this history special video, I visit the Oosterbeek Arnhem war Cemetery near Arnhem in The Netherlands, part of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission. All those brave people took part in Operation Market Garden, from 17th to 27th September 1944, Many of whom died on that first day. Two such brave soldiers were Claude and Thomas Gronert, two twin brothers from Cornwall who died a few minutes apart, just five hours after parachuting into Wolfheze a few miles away.

I also visit the grave of flight Lieutenant David Lord, who won his Victoria Cross for piloting his burning aircraft, KG374, whilst dropping supplies to the ground forces. I also talk about the Dakota KP208, which was painted to resemble the Dakota KG374 which David Lord was flying. David Lord is one of three Victoria Cross holders buried in the Oosterbeek Arnhem war Cemetery, part of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission. The Oosterbeek Arnhem war Cemetery is so well kept and all the graves are in well maintained lines.

The story of Operation Market Garden was told in the film A Bridge too Far, made in 1977 which took place in The Netherlands during World War 2.
