very cool

i lived in the Netherlands for 7 years (93-99) and attended the annual US led Memorial day ceremony in Margratin, an American Cemetery near Aachen, Germany.

I took a weekend course for college that focused on the Bridge too Far. We went (as much as possible) the entire route on the old roads that the British travel, the 82nd landed in and the group ended up at the Arnhem Museum devoted to Operation Market Garden. It was first day lecture, second day drive while the Professor instructed us. It was a most excellent course.

He also taught the 'Battle of the Bulge" course, same principle. His courses were very popular.
