Description

In preparation for the liberation of the northern part of the Netherlands, Operation Amherst was launched on the night of 7 to 8 April 1945.

This last airborne operation of the Second World War was carried out by 702 French (SAS) paratroopers.

The fighting developed quickly after the landings in the province of Drenthe and a part of southeast Friesland.

Canadian and British forces would then engage in the liberation of Groningen and the Westerbork concentration camp, and the elimination of the Delfzijl Pocket.
