Summary edit

Description
English: Monument near John S. Thompson-Bridge to remember the attack on the germans defending the Maasbrug near Grave on 17 september 1944 by 16 members of the E-company.
Nederlands: Monument bij de John S. Thompson-Brug ter nagedachtenis aan de verovering van de Maasbrug bij Grave op 17 september 1944 door de 16 man van de E-company.

Op 17 september 1944 landde de peletonscommandant Luitenant John. S. Thompson van de 82nd Airborne Divisie met 16 van zijn mannen vlak naast de Graafsebrug. Deze brug ligt over de Maas ter hoogte van Grave. Op een van de kazematten vlakbij de brug, stond afweergeschut. Dit werd onklaar gemaakt door een Amerikaanse Bazooka.

Uiteindelijk slaagde het peleton erin, om de zuidkant van de brug in te nemen.
