As from new year's day, the Dutch forum runs it's very special own campaign, on the topic of Market Garden. This was one of the most spectacular and daring allied campaigns of WWII, and we'll celebrate it's 60 anniversary with a special campaign.

Are any of you little pigsies up to such a challenge ? This is NOT a Dutch/Belgian only campaign : ALL are welcome. That is - if you're not scared of being eaten by our bloodthirsty wolfpack. I'm sure you're not. In fact, we might just let you live till the end of the campaign.
Plenty of time left to put you on the grill after that. Winter season isn't the best for BBQ anyway.

No kidding folks, this may well be the most memoramble campaign in the young history of this site. Grab your history books, start surfing the web to get ideas, and read the campaign rules on the campaign forum. For those interested, there's a nice war movie covering the subject : "A bridge too far". Should get your interested pronto.

If interested, please leave a word on the Dutch forum. Danny (Eagle) is waiting to list you !

I get my parachute washed and ironed, ready to hit Arnhem ! Cya all there in 2004 !
