Mr. Poulussen just wrote and published a book about the 504th and 508th Parachute Infantry Regiment in the first few days of Market Garden.

From the forword: "The three day delay in the capture of the Waal Bridge in Nijmegen was unnecessary and seriously contributed to the failure of operation “Market Garden”. A new point of view, based on discovered documents.
For the first time a factual account of the decisive first twenty-four hours of fighting by the 82nd Airborne Division around Nijmegen.
If the Waal Bridge had been secured, when British XXX Corps arrived in Nijmegen on the 19th of September, they would have had 48 hours to relieve their compatriots at Arnhem.
Based on a lot of original material in Dutch and American archives, the author meticulously describes the combat actions of the 504 and 508 PIR.
Background information, uncovered maps and enlightening overviews complete the book.
