Eisenhower received the proposal to carry out the Market Operation, followed by Operation Garden.
Montgomery wanted to have him First Airborne Army to capture a series of bridges to along a little corridor less than 100 km long, between the Holland border with Belgium, passing through Eindhoven and reaching Arnhem.
The corridor is divided into three sectors. The southern sector is assigned to the 101st Airborne Division, by command of Taylor, who must secure the bridges between Veghel and Eindhoven, on the canal Wilhelmina and nine other bridges.
The speed of the operation is crucial, since it would be carried out during the day, and intelligence ensured that German troops in the area were few in number and without support from armored ... more was his worst mistake, what would it cost americans more than they wish ...

Sure, we want to go home. We want this war over with. The quickest way to get it over with is to go get the bastards who started it. The quicker they are whipped, the quicker we can go home. The shortest way home is through Berlin and Tokyo. And when we get to Berlin, I am personally going to shoot that paper-hanging son-of-a-%@&%# Hitler - just like I'd shoot a snake.
