The One Man Tank Destroyer

Outnumbered and outgunned, another Tiger 1 and StuG turn toward Major Cain. With his complete loathing and hatred of tanks Major Cain picks up his trusty PIAT and goes out alone to deal with them.
Injured and out of PIAT rounds he picks up a two-inch motor and takes on the advancing Panzer grenadiers and their tanks. His incessant bombardment and aggression forced the enemy into full retreat.
Throughout the whole course of the Battle of Arnhem, Major Cain showed superb gallantry. His powers of endurance and leadership were the admiration of all his fellow officers and men. Cain was awarded the Victoria Cross for his actions.

The reputation of the Para's was immortalised in this combat. A high ranking German officer remarked that the street fighting was on par with that of Stalingrad, but there is not a lot you can do when you're clean out of ammunition and facing a couple of SS Divisions. If only Nijmegen bridge had been taken in time (another Airborne unit had that responsibility).

[@MrNicoJac]

For Nijmegen, the problem also was that the armor didn't advance fast enough to reach the paratroopers in time, right? I can't remember if it was a Historiography video, or Baz Battles, or whatever, but someone made a video about Market Garden, and showed how the armored thrust got delayed from the very start. (could've even been Jeremy's documentary, actually) Which REALLY did not help out the paratroopers, who needed to hold out much longer than initially planned.

Its was doomed from the start. 1. Montgomery refused to believe that 30 Corps (If memory service correctly) so he refused to put a backup in place for his men. 2. It was WAY too ambitious on the allies part. There was no way to grab and hold the bridges for that long.
