    I have been meaning to upload this information for a while but became engrossed in other activities, so here it is now.

    During a visit to Holland to see some friends, I was taken to this museum: http://www.wingsofliberation.nl/nl/mbv-home
    and its location can be found just North of Eindhoven, East of the Son Bridge and near the town/village of Best - link to map http://www.wingsofliberation.nl/nl/mbv-informatie/mbv-contact-en-route

    The museum (military wise) covers the occupation of Holland throughout WW2 and has specific sections on Operation Market garden.
    It also has a very good restaurant, and others sections of the park are open for non military nuts, and has sections on toys, books, outdoor games and areas for all the family.

    I have created an album in the gallery http://ww2talk.com/forums/gallery/album/769-wings-of-liberation-museum/

    Hi Owen

    Thanks for the tip - should be noted though that you need to be in Full editor mode to select the 'Media' option

    I must mention for those of the OMG/para/horsa fraternity, that there are more pictures in the museum regarding OMG etc, in fact too many for me to photograph them all. So what I have posted in the gallery is just a selection, as you can read from the Brochure pages 6,7,8 & 9 provide the written information regarding the various photos/montages on OMG almost on a day to day basis.

    Hope you enjoy and visit in the future.
