Comments by "Ken ibn Anak" (@kenibnanak5554) on "The BAD BOY of Operation Market Garden | General 'Boy' Browning" video.
I think the Brigade Commanders knew about the tanks and the Battalion Commander(s) didn't. Information came downhill much faster than it went uphill. The Brigade Commanders were probably also told Browning knew, so they assumed their own supervisor also knew and there was a reason everything was going on. Questioning a Battalion Commander without good cause wasn't healthy for a career, so they didn't. Sosabowski was a scapegoat. He was right in his comments and supervisors don't like subordinates smarter than them. Browning would have made a good S1 or S4 possibly. but he made a poor S3.
