Last Saturday the Friends of the Airborne Museum organised a lecture on the 1st and 2nd Airlanding Anti-Tank Battery RA by Mr. Eugene Wijnhoud (MBE). Very interesting stuff, here's hoping his research will appear in print. And personally I think we should take better care of the remaining original guns!

Stefan Odenhammer (http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/member.php?u=1111) has not logged on MLU since 2010 and a quick search in the internet did not yield any recent results...

There is still a Morris chassis under a sort of Shepherds hut caravan on camping the Rijnoever in Oosterbeek.

Could that be a genuine relic of Market-Garden? 🤔
