The German build up to crush the paratroopers had to be balanced with stopping 30 Corps..........recon elements probed for the British.

Are those Panzer IIs? I do not recognize them. Are they repaints?

Kind of. They are the NMA Lynx's. Not repaints, but the Summer camo version -green/yellow and urban camo -red/yellow.

Cool! I have one on the way from the UK. On the extremely slow boat though. I am excited to see it there.

British reinforcements are on the way but for now........

The preliminary to the Airborne drop at Arnhem included several raids by low level mosquito and other aircraft on pinpoint targets such as barracks..........

Re: battle for arnhem....

But airpower was of limited use when heavy armour was in close proximity to the paras, and in any event, the Germans frequently had local air superiority due to the weather..............

Meanwhile, Student's paras were putting up fierce resistance

but they are still not being loaded!

Hope the trade works out in your favor for it sure looks like the para's can use all the help they can get to defend the bridge. Once again another great photo Kevin........The Lt.

The Germans were able to build up more forces near the 1st Airborne drop zones, faster than the paras could land reinforcements...............
