Nijmegen's Sunset March
The story of the 82nd Airborne's courageous crossing during WWII highlights the significance of the Nijmegen bridge, which has since become a symbol of remembrance. Each evening, veterans honor the 48 fallen soldiers with a silent march, illuminating the bridge's lights in their memory. This act of tribute is particularly poignant given the city's tragic history, having suffered a devastating bombing by American forces just months prior, showcasing the resilience and integrity of the Nijmegen community.In this clip
