Two British soldiers who were killed 80 years ago during the Battle of Arnhem have finally been laid to rest with full military honours.
Private Henry Moon and Lieutenant Dermod Green Anderson died fighting in Operation Market Garden, the major airborne offensive aimed at securing strategically important crossings in the Netherlands.
They were buried in the Commonwealth War Graves Commission’s Arnhem Oosterbeek War Cemetery, which is the final resting place of more than 1,700 Second World War service personnel.
