Operation Market Garden was the failed assault on the Nazi Germany occupation of the Lowland Countries late in WWII and memorialized in the classic film "A Bridge Too Far" as well as the equally classic HBO miniseries "Band of Brothers."

I was supposed to attend this, as a crewman in a Humber Armored Car. US customs and some other dickery nixed the trip.
