Overloon Museum - Arnhem



In a WW2 museum in Netherlands you are never far away from a Market Garden exhibit.  Which of course is no bad thing.

    Very timely. I'm reading Antony Beevor's new book on Arnhem. Really enjoying it.

    The AA machine gun is a Bren with the very rare drum magazine....

    I have the book but haven’t read it yet. I’ll take it next time we visit NL.
