Operation Market Garden was big, bold, and aggressive. So, too, is our 9-day (17 to 25 September 2021), 9-episode Operation Market Garden retrospective. Hopefully, these podcasts will turn out better than Market Garden.
Day 3: Episode 65 continues the daily series of episodes.
Here Dr. John Bonin returns. He's the American historian and all-around affable fellow from Episode 64. This time around he and host Joe Buccino talk about what went wrong, specifically the command structure of the 1st Allied Airborne Army that put an inexperienced paratrooper (Brit Frederick Browning, commander of the British 1st Corps) in charge of a massive airborne insertion. They also talk about the decision to insert in day vs. under the cover of darkness. Finally, Dr. Bonin goes all in on British Field Marshall Bernard Law Montgomery. Oh boy, does Dr. Bonin let Monty have it.
