At dawn on 22nd October 1944, the British Second Army struck westwards from Oss towards the important town and rail junction of Hertogenbosch, some 12 miles away.
Within the first few hours of the attack British infantry and supporting tanks had advanced up to 2, 000 yards and by 24th October, many towns and villages had been captured and battle had been joined in Hertogenbosch itself.
