    Description

    An outstanding limited edition paying tribute to the 506th P.I.R,
    101st Airborne during
    the Allied liberation of Europe
    THE ROAD TO THE RHINE
    By Robert Taylor
    On Sunday 17 September 1944, the first day of Operation Market Garden, C-47 Dakotas of the 439th Troop Carrier Group dropped thousands of paratroopers from the 82nd and 101st Airborne Divisions into Holland, a hundred and fifty miles behind enemy lines. This daring operation, the largest airborne assault of World War II, aimed to capture and secure vital bridges in the Allies’ push towards the Rhine.
    This majestic piece was specially commissioned to
    pay tribute to the US Airborne forces that took part in the liberation of Europe
    including D-Day, Operation Market Garden, and Bastogne
    .
    The prints in this historic edition have been personally signed by veterans of one of the most famous Airborne Divisions, the 101st Airborne, to make this a true collector’s gem.
