Description
English: Aerial view of the bridge over the Neder Rijn, Arnhem; British troops and destroyed German armoured vehicles are visible at the north end of the bridge. Had General Montgomery's ambitious scheme for seizing the Rhine bridges succeeded, the war in Europe might have been shortened by many months. In the event, however, back-up forces were unable to come up quickly enough to enable the advanced airborne troops to hold the strategically vital bridge at Arnhem.
Nederlands: Lucht foto van de brug over de Neder-Rijn bij Arnhem. Britse troepen en gepantserde voertuigen zijn zichtbaar aan de noordkant van de brug.
