And What Have We Learned Since 2019?

Inspired by the D-Day liberation of Pegasus Bridge.
Operation Market Garden, to liberate a bridge in the Dutch city of Arnhem. Was an absolute disaster for the British Army's Parachute Regiment.
So much so they had to be rescued by Canadian Special Operations Forces (SOF). In Operation Pegasus.
My paternal grandfather began his sketchy military career with the British Navy's Marine corps.
A career which included the inauguration of the US-Canadian 1st Special Service Force. The first modern SOF unit.
Along with the Japanese surrender aboard the USS Missouri. Following the first and only time Nuclear weapons have even been used in anger.
After the war his home town was twinned with Arnhem. As if to say to the entire Parachute Regiment;
"You see what we did there? We learned from out mistake."
As with Arnhem during Operation Market Garden that town is home to a psychiatric hospital. The UK's specialist centre for Eating Disorders.
Part of the global leadership in Mental Health care that Britain hoped to achieve. Through its 2006 decision to just, completely withdraw from reality.
But it's a good job we've got a ridiculously pronouned 12 year old at Twitter. To protect us from all of that.

Obviously it's been a shocking and panic inducing time. For the occupiers of the stolen seat.
The realisation that a consensus has been reached. That it's long past time the Table of Nations resolved them.
