Welcome to my take on XXX Corps.
In this video, we will look at evaluating XXX Corps performance. Was it slow, delayed or derelict? The goal is to examine its performance before, at and after Nijmegen and determine if the old narratives about being slow were justified.
We will examine the "blame game" to some degree, but that is not what this video is about. It includes a detailed examination of the actual timeline, the amphibious action at Nijmegen and a perspective on the failure to exploit the final crossing on September 20, 1944.
Hope you find it informative. Please provide your commentary below.
For those interested in the timeline of events, here were my references:
XXX Corps advances 7 miles by nightfall of Day-1: Ryan, A Bridge Too Far, p. 356.
XXX Corps links up with 101st Airborne at Eindhoven at “around noon” on 18-SEP: Ryan, A Bridge Too Far, p. 360
XXX Corps links up at the Son Bridge “shortly after 7 P.M.” which is around dark on 18-SEP: Ryan, A Bridge Too Far, p. 359 (oddly, described out of sequence in the book)
Departure from the Son River at 06:45 on 19-SEP: Ryan, A Bridge Too Far, p. 410
Arrival at the Grave River at 08:30 on 19-SEP: Ryan, A Bridge Too Far, p. 411
