Jumping in to Drop Zones eight to ten miles from Arnhem on the second day of Operation Market Garden was always going to be difficult for Brigadier Shan Hacketts 4th British Parachute Brigade With little information on how 1 Para Brigades battle went the day before or what faced them on the ground the stage was set for an epic battle John Waddy v company commander in 156 Para Battalion and a team of Arnhem experts cover the ground where 4 Para Brigade fought with 9 SS Pz Div in the woods to the west of Arnhem in what was to be an unequal but heroic battle the result of a flawed concept and planDriven back the Brigade was withdrawing across LZ P when the Polish heavy lift gliders swept in to cause Captain Quirepel was awarded a posthumous Victoria Cross for his action in helping stem the enemy advance long enough for the Paratroopers to escape across the railway embankment by nightfall
