A boy stands next to a gravestone holding flowers during the the Arnhem Oosterbeek War Cemetery, more than 1750 Allied soldiers were buried. As part of the commemorations for the 75th anniversary of Operation Market Garden, a memorial service was held in the presence of veterans, their relatives and thousands of people. A white stone arch was placed at each grave. On the field of honor is a 'Cross of sacrifice' made of Portland stone, on which a bronze sword is attached.
