Overview:
Part I-As British gliders began to descend to the northwest of Arnhem, they were observed by German troops that had been exercising in the woods near Wolfheze. These troops were SS Captain Sepp Krafft’s Training and Replacement Battalion 16. They would be the largest, self-contained German unit near the British landing zones. Krafft would act decisively with the limited intelligence available to him. The high trees in the area prevented him from observing the scale of the Allied assault, but nonetheless, he moved his force quickly to gain control of and block the Ede-Arnhem railway cutting and the Wageningen-Arnhem road. The British were unaware of Krafft’s blocking line.Attacker: British (1st Airborne Reconnaissance Squadron and 7th KOSB)
Defender: German (SS) (2nd Company, 16 Training and Replacement Battalion 16)
