REPORT ON ACTIVITIES OF THE GLIDER PILOT REGIMENT IN OPERATION MARKET GARDEN

7 PAGE PHOTOCOPY OF THIS OFFICIAL DOCUMENT, TAKEN FROM A 21st ARMY GROUP REPORT ON ALLIED AIRBORNE OPERATIONS IN HOLLAND, REGARDING OPERATION MARKET GARDEN AND THE ARNHEM BATTLE. ORIGINAL HELD WITH THE OPERATION MARKET GARDEN DOCUMENTS AT THE MUSEUM OF ARMY FLYING. NOT AVAILABLE TO VIEW BY THE GENERAL PUBLIC.

Operation Market Garden involved a major ground assault by the British Army's XXX Corps which was spearheaded by the Guards Armoured Division tanks (Operation Garden) and a major airborne paratroop/glider assault of 39,000 men of the 1st Allied Airborne Army (Operation Market). The 1st Allied Airborne Army was composed of British, American and Polish units. Operation Market Garden required 5 bridges to be captured with the fifth and final bridge at Arnhem being the key to the whole operation. The British 1st Airborne Division along with the Polish Independent Parachute Brigade, a total of approximately 10,000 men, were tasked to seize and hold the Arnhem bridge until relief arrived.

In mid September 1944 Operation Market Garden commenced and the British 1st Airborne Division parachuted into Arnhem and fought unexpected heavy elite German opposition, such as elements of the 9th & 10th SS Panzer Divisions (as well as SS Panzer Grenadier Reserve and Depot Battalion 16, the Wehrmacht 15th Army, the 1st Parachute Army and other units), in an effort to hold the bridge until the arrival of XXX Corps. It would prove a bridge too far....
