Guys:

I read Don Burgett's book 'Road to Arnhem', about his adventures in Holland during & after Market-Garden with the 101st; I recall a tale he relayed about a British Officer he observed, who led a British infantry unit (battalion/brigade?) against a German position--sorry the memory ain't what it used to be and I haven't read the book in quite a while. Anyway, Burgett lambasted the officer because he described the tactics he used as a 'Napoleonic Era Infantry attack by ranks'--of course the unit in question suffered heavy casualties. Does anybody know anything about this battle? Or is it some kind of 'war story'?

Thanks ahead of time.
