• About Operation: Market Garden

  During Operation: Market Garden, which lasted ten days, Allied forces dropped 35,000 paratroopers into German-held Holland to secure roads and bridges for an armored offensive. Holding these key locations would have paved the way for an Allied infiltration into the German lowlands. In the end, Operation: Market Garden proved unsucessful and was the last major Nazi victory of World War II.RememberSeptember44 Remember September 44
