    Next to Eethuis Airborne on the edge of the landing grounds that were in use during the Battle of Arnhem, this monument was unveiled by two Arnhem veterans on 21 September 2018. The text reads:

    ON 17 AND 18 SEPTEMBER 1944, PARACHUTISTS AND GLIDER PLANES OF THE 1ST BRITISH AIRWAY DIVISION LANDED IN THE FIELDS AROUND THIS POINT.

    FROM HERE THEY BEGAN THEIR ATTEMPT TO CONQUER THE RHINE BRIDGES AS PART OF OPERATION MARKET GARDEN.
