Best
The bridges at Best and Son can both get XXX Corps across the Wilhelmina Canal, but the 101st Airborne planners have decided to focus on the Son bridge and leave the bridge at Best as a secondary objective.  The Market plan calls for Company "H" of the 502nd Parachute Infantry Regiment to attack and secure the bridge.  If enemy resistence is heavier than expected we may need to commit additional forces here to protect the western flank of the corridor.
Best has one of the two vital bridges across the Wilhelmina Canal.  While friendly troops are still fighting south of the canal, you must destroy the bridge if there is a danger of its capture by the enemy.  Even if the bridge is lost, control of Best will provide us with a staging area for a counter-attack across the base of the Allied corridor.
