World War II: Secrets from Above - Season 2 - Eps 5: Operation Market Garden
In September 1944, the Allies risked a gamble. The landing in the Dutch provinces of Noord-Brabant and Gelderland is intended to enable a rapid advance into the Ruhr area. But the success of “Operation Market Garden” depends on the perfect interaction of several factors: the dropping of tens of thousands of paratroopers behind enemy lines must be successful, as well as the capture of several fiercely defended bridges. It is also important to neutralize one of the best-equipped German tank divisions. In fact, the risky operation does not turn out as hoped.
