Synopsis

The 4th Parachute Squadron, Royal Engineers was raised to support the 4th Parachute Infantry Brigade and landed with them at Arnhem on 18th September 1944. Responsible for getting the brigade's heavy transport and guns across the railway embankment during their hasty retreat into the Oosterbeek Perimeter, the squadron found itself split in half and inserted into the line to fight as infantry. Each half stood their ground after repeated attacks, taking numerous casualties in the process. This is not only the story of how they held out, but how they managed to hit back at their attackers before they were eventually evacuated.This edition has 13 original maps and drawings and numerous never seen before pictures.
