Tonight & Tomorrow on Channel 5 at 8pm - 'Battle of Arnhem: Tour of Duty'

Battle of Arnhem: Tour of Duty documents the efforts of a youth organisation to bring history to life and engage young people in a groundbreaking way – namely by learning history through real-life simulations and first-hand experience. The brainchild of a group of former paratroopers and youth workers, Battle of Arnhem is a phenomenally ambitious and daring project. The plan is to take a group of typical teenagers and train them to recreate the famous September 1944 aerial parachute assault on Arnhem in the Netherlands

Watched last night's (Wed) but tonight's take them to Arnhem; should be interesting.

Just watched the next episode and was nice to see some of the place we visited. I'm sure that they dropped onto the feild next to our campsite.

Yes - good to recall some of those places.

Yep the DZ was the one next to the campsite - I feel a challenge coming on!!
