Paratroopers of the 101st Airborne at the bridge over the Dommel on the Kanaalstraat in Eindhoven, 18 September 1944.
The Screaming Eagles lost hours they could not spare before they ever reached Eindhoven. When the Germans blew the bridge at Son over the Wilhelmina Canal on 17 September 1944, the entire timetable for the division's advance was wrecked.
The plan assumed the Son bridge would be taken intact, allowing a rapid push into Eindhoven and a link-up with XXX Corps driving north from the Belgian border in the early morning hours of 18 September.
Instead, the demolition at Son forced improvisation. A temporary crossing had to be arranged before the advance could continue. Then they waited for first light and by the time the 101st reached the Dommel and pushed into central Eindhoven, civilians who had been expecting their liberators since morning were still waiting.
The Guards Armoured Division, themselves delayed by a German blocking line, finally linked up with the Americans in Eindhoven in the afternoon. The schedule was already slipping. Sixty kilometres to the north, John Frost's battalion was holding the Arnhem bridge with no relief in sight.
Goodnight everyone sleep well
Remember
You are someone’s light
The person they look too
The person they love and admire
The person they trust and respect
You’re incredibly special to them
Not bad for being you is it
❤️❤️❤️💙❤️❤️❤️

Jay and Sina donated their son Aari's organs after his tragic accident, saving two lives. This, and the low consent rate in the South Asian community, led both parents to urge everyone to talk about organ donation. #SouthAsianHeritageMonth#RootsToRoutes#OrganDonation
