Description
English: Sgt. Darrin White, a Paratrooper assigned to the 173rd Airborne Brigade and a veteran of the 82nd Airborne Division, leads the sunset march on a bridge over the Waal River near Nijmegen, the Netherlands, Sept. 17. White participated in the tradition of the sunset march to honor the 48 men who died in combat during the Waal River crossing in 1944. One at a time, the 48 streetlights on the bridge illuminate, representing paratroopers of the 504th Parachute Infantry Regiment and the 307th Engineer Battalion that were killed in combat while crossing the river during Operation Market Garden. White is one of nearly 1,000 paratroopers from seven NATO countries that attended the 71st Anniversary of Operation Market Garden. (82nd Airborne Division photo by Staff Sgt. Jason Hull)
