A Final Visit to the Fallen of WWII at Margraten & Henri-Chapelle

Part 12 of the Market Garden series. We're wrapping up our series on the 82nd Airborne in Operation Market Garden. All freedom comes at a cost. To reflect on that cost and to honor the memories of the men who paid it, we're visiting the Netherlands American Cemetery and the Henri-Chapelle American Cemetery with the three WWII veterans who accompanied us on this trip, one of whom had a very personal connection to a soldiers who is laid to rest there.
