Overview:
The bold defiance of the British holding the Bridge at Arnhem was beginning to wane. During the previous night the Germans shelled the paratroopers tenuous foothold in the city. Artillery was brought up to point blank range. Fires raged about the British and a much needed rain poured down, but did not help the fires or the thirst. As dawn broke Col. Frost was wounded. Although the British still held on. One glaring weakness with the British defense was their inability to fight off German tanks, especially the Royal Tiger. With ammunition critically low, barely any mortar or AT rounds left, and few precious PIAT rounds, the plucky para's could only hope to ride out the coming SS storm.Attacker: German (SS) (10th SS Panzer Division)
Defender: British (1st Airborne Division)
