EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Airborne Forces Plaque, which once graced the walls of the old St. Elisabeths Hospital during the pivotal days of Operation Market Garden in 1944. The hospital, located in the Netherlands, served as a vital medical facility for the British 16th Field Ambulance, which treated the wounded soldiers during the Battle of Arnhem. The plaque, with its distinctive combination of the medical corps insignia and the Airborne Pegasus, was a testament to the bravery and sacrifice of the airborne troops who fought in this historic battle. By 2001, the old hospital had been transformed into modern apartments, and plans were underway to return the plaque, along with several others, to the Hartenstein Museum. These commemorative plaques had originally been donated to the hospital and held significant historical value for the Airborne community. The Airborne Commemorative Marker No. 6, which stands outside the hospital entrance, pays tribute to the 16th Field Ambulance's stay at the hospital. This image offers a poignant reminder of the hospital's rich history and its role in the Airborne Forces' legacy. The old St. Elisabeths Hospital stands as a symbol of the resilience and determination of those who served during World War II, and the return of these plaques to the Hartenstein Museum ensures that their stories will continue to be shared with future generations.
