On to Sunday 23 September. Before attending the ceremony at the Cemetery, Kelly and I explored a few of the more well known local sites in the Oosterbeek area...
Hackett's Hollow.

For those who are unaware, Hackett's hollow was the site of a bayonet charge by troopers of the 4th Parachute Landing Brigade . There is an excellent account of this action in the book "Men at Arnhem" by Geoffrey Powell.
Also on the agenda was a stop at the infamous Railway Tunnel...
