Market Garden 1944 - 2014

At that time the frontline had come to a halt near the Rhine. The supply lines where thin since the Allies weren't able to use any harbors apart from those they had captured in Normandy.

The operation was an attempt to break the front open get over the Rhine, through the Siegfried line into Germany before the Germans where able to get organized.

When the operation succeeded it would mean that the allies could capture the industrial heart of Germany and if all went well end the war in 1944.
