Other locations are equally moving and well worth a look.

A great scenario by the way, Huib! Helmet Smile

Thanks Petri,

This scn is my own favorite out of all the ones I made.
The main sources I used are really worth reading. For the German side I used
Das Fallschirmjäger-Lehr-Regiment by Heinz Bliss and Berd Bosshammer. This one contains by far the best info on the German plans and oob for their attacks from the Reichswald towards Nijmegen.

For the Allied side I used a chapter in All American All the Way by Phil Nordyke. This book is really a "must have". So much info on one of the best divisions in WW2.

Yes Huib,

It is a very good scenario by you and the CS community is lucky to have it! I never played it for post but I have played it local on the machine H2H with a friend of mine. I lost as the Allies against a very stubborn German defense!!
