Notes: 9/18/44. Not clear which of the drop zones the 44th went to.

Slide197.jpg
Notes: 44th BG dropped to the 101st (having trouble figuring out which it was).

Slide198.jpg
Notes: Labeled boundaries of drop zone and Paulshoef where the 506th landed and where 44th dropped supplies. Think the forest below is where we see some of the photos w/ bombers flying low over dense tree-filled area.

Slide199.jpg
Notes: 44th narratives about seeing Dutch wave below. Quintessentially Dutch scene with windmills. People standing on base of windmill and on ground. Most Dutch farms had several farm houses clustered around windmill.
