OPERATION MARKET GARDEN - THE BATTLE FOR ARNHEM

[Flying10uk]

As I understand it the term was originated by General Fredrick 'Boy' Browning, who led I Airborne from Nijmegen.

The term may have been used in the film but was the term actually used in real life?

If it was, it seems a stupid thing to say because the whole point of the entire operation was to capture all of the bridges including, most importantly, the bridge at Arnhem because that bridge led into the heart of Germany.
