Aragorn2002 Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 (edited) In remembrance of those who fell at Arnhem, Nijmegen and other battlefields of Market Garden I'm always playing CMMG this time of the year. A sort of salute to all the soldiers and civilans who died during those dark days, on both sides. I'm Battlefront still grateful for this superb module. I wonder whether there are any (dutch) building mods or other specifically 'dutch' mods? Edited September 22, 2019 by Aragorn2002 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just watched it on Youtube. Good summary of what happened. Yesterday around 1000 paratroopers jumped over the Ginkelse Heide, to the Northwest of Arnhem. Among them a British veteran of 97 years...My God, what a generation! Edited September 22, 2019 by Aragorn2002 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warts 'n' all Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Yes, I have watched the footage of his tandem jump on the BBC a couple of times. An old girlfriend of mine emigrated to The Netherlands in the 1980's. During the 1990's she ran a restaurant in a village just off of "Hell's Highway", every September she would have veterans in there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not many of them left anymore. Last Saturday more than 100 000 people came to see the airlanding at the Ginkelse Heide. I must say I was a bit surprised to see that the BBC didn't pay any attention to Market Garden. At least I didn't see it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
