Why Frostbridge?
​
In September 1944 The British 1st Airborne Division held Arnhem Bridge for
3 days and 3 nights against the armored might of the 9th SS Panzer Division. The bridge was held by one Battalion, the 2nd, and a few other small units, numbering only around 300 men. They valiantly held on, until the houses they were in were blasted from beneath them and they finally ran out of ammunition. The remnants scattered, most were captured, and some escaped. They were commanded by Lt.Col. John Frost, and after the war the bridge they had held was named 'Frostbrugge' (Frostbridge in English) in his honour. Those men are my heroes and an inspiration - an amazing story - as told in the film
"A Bridge Too Far"...
