missjoeri is an unknown quantity at this point
Something also overlooked was that intelligence from the Dutch resistance and the 'leader' of the resistance, Prince Bernhard, was ignored by Monty.
Trough this intelligence the allies could have learned about German troop movement but also that some of the planned routes were simply un-useable due to the softness of the earth, etc.
The resistance had detailed information about the area that 'could' have made a difference.
