Unfortunately the original bridge is moved . It was amazing to see where the gliders landed on D-Day. If they were any closer to the bridge they would have hit it. British paras led by Major John Howard took the bridge. We will try and visit there again this year and quaff another ale in the cafe.

That must have been quite a wonderful experience for you men. Right there ! With someone who was there and liberated, and remembers!
I hope you get to visit the cafe again. If you take a camera, learn from Dave Cox's mistake
