Operation Varsity: The Final Airborne Assault of World War II

One river. One daring drop. One last chance to crush Nazi Germany.

In the spring of 1945, as Allied forces closed in on Hitlers collapsing empire, one final major barrier remained: the Rhine River. Beyond it lay the industrial core of Germany and the fading but fierce hope of Nazi resistance.

To break through, Allied commanders launched Operation Varsity, the largest single-day airborne assault of World War II.
Thousands of paratroopers and glider-borne soldiers from the British 6th Airborne and American 17th Airborne divisions flew across the Rhine and into one of the most dangerous, high-stakes missions of the entire conflict.
