Hey guys,

We are looking for pictures made on the western front in the periode of september 1944 untill april 1945. Concerning the british/Scottish/Canadian/ US armoured and infantry forces (tanks, infantry, anti tank/ anti aircraft/ field artillery, paratroops, glider forces and royal marine and army commando's) Also we are looking for pictures of German SS, Wehrmacht and Fallschirmjager troops and vehicles and guns. Main intrest goes ofcourse to pictures made with the Netherlands or concerning the operations in the Scheldt region or Operation Market Garden.

Hope You can help us in large quantity's

Cheers Buck

I have seen this picture before and I remember the caption, that said that it was taken in Nijmegen. Actually not far from where I live , in the 'Oranjesingel' street. By the looks of it this is very well possible. The soldiers might have been from 82nd Airborne.

Ah, thanks for the info Pete. The photo was captioned as 101st soldiers in Nijmegen, so I figured somebody had mixed up the place names.

Polish Paratroopers with a 68P Radio.

Polish officers along with officers of the 43rd Divison, at Polish 1st Brigade HQ near Driel.

Polish paratroopers man handel a 6pdr Anti Tank gun.

US Glider Infantry of the 327th Regiment of the 101st AB Divison look over wreckage at a LZ near son on September 18th.

101st AB Soldiers watch British transports burning along a strech of "Hells Highway" north of Endihoven on September 20th.

This is realy all I have for US Airborne.

What commanders are you still looking for?
