@davemac1197 I never understood why they couldn't have found a way to drop at least some units on the southern side of Arnhem bridge and seize both ends at the same time. The same goes for Nijmegen bridge where they could've dropped at least a small unit near the northern end so that both sides of Nijmegen bridge could be taken at the same time. Even if there were concerns of AA shooting down aircraft or less than ideal landing zones, I think it would've been worth the risk to land at least some troops on those LZs if it meant that both sides of those bridges could be taken rather than having to fight to cross the bridge to take it.
