Default Bresserberg.

Marco.

Good.

But what I would like to see is the view to Emmerich from the Bresserberg.

Crerar, Churchill and the others were looking at the floods.

The map (from Stacey) shows part of Cleve was under water. It shows flooding all the way to Emmerich 8kms away, and Nijmegen which was 17 kms distant.

Thank you. But do it only if it is not too much trouble.

We cannot be certain they were on the Bresserberg.

I thought trees would be a problem.

Can you climb up the Luftwaffe tower and get above the trees?
