Plaque commemorating the battle for the Ludendorff bridge in Remagen during the 2nd World War. The bridge capture was an important strategic event of WW2 because it was the only remaining bridge over the Rhine River into Germany's heartland and was also strong enough that the Allies could cross immediately with tanks and trucks full of supplies.
