Operation Market Garden
The main objective of Operation Market-Garden, conducted in September 1944 during World War II, was to secure a series of key bridges in the Netherlands to enable an Allied advance into northern Germany. The operation aimed to create a direct route for Allied forces to cross the Rhine River and potentially bring a swift end to the war in Europe. It involved a combined airborne and ground assault, with the hope of rapidly capturing the bridges before German reinforcements could respond. However, the operation ultimately faced significant challenges and was only partially successful.
Market Garden was an Allied airborne operation that took place in the Netherlands and Germany between 17 & 25 September 1944. The objective was to take and control a series of bridges en route to the Rhine and northern Germany. While MG was the largest airborne operation before or since, it was eventually a failure as Allied armor never achieved the desired objective.
Operation Market Garden happened on 1944-09-25.
Operation Market Garden was not very successful and only lasted a short period for time from September 17th to September 25th, 1944. More information on the Operation Market Garden can be found in full details on Wikipedia.
