Koevering, Hell's Highway, September 24th 1944: The Germans knew the importance of the stream of trucks heading north to Arnhem. Around Veghel, and St Oedenrode, their patrols had probed for a soft spot to cut the vital lifeline. Their recce had reported that the village of Eerde was occupied, but the area between Schijndel and Dinther appeared clear, also there seemed to be gaps around the north of St Oedenrode. The order came to Gen Chill to attack in the morning towards the Veghel bridges, which he did, then a little later the attack was directed at the village of Koevering. Gen Horrocks was in the area around the time that Hell's Highway was cut again, this was the last straw for him, he accepted that the operation was a failure, and confirmed that the Arnhem withdrawal was to continue as planned. [Size small] This scenario was altered to allow more historical results.
