November 2nd,1944  Operation Market Garden was proving a disaster. The Brit Paras had just reported they had run into tanks, there was suppose to be no tanks in the area. Major Howard and his boys was in trouble. XXX Corps had been held up too so even if the tanks weren't there they would be before XXX Corps arrived, if they did. No Monty's gamble to end the War early was going to fail, now to save what could be saved. If only the Air transports had been available earlier but their servicing after so many operations had to be done. A month earlier and maybe those tanks now would have been somewhere else. Paras against tanks, a disaster in the making. And Monty He really couldn't help if the Bridge at Einhoven had been blown. Building even a 'Balley' bridge takes time. One thing Major Howard and the Mates had run out of.
