Was annoyed as well by the plans being found on a 'British' glider not an American one as in reality.
But a minor gripe can not remember if it was in history Buffs review but saw Anthony Hopkins interviewed and John Frost was on set when he did the scene of Frost running between posts. Hopkins asked if it was accurate 'No' replied Frost ' I'd never run wouldn't want to let the bastards think I was afraid'
Think it was in Urquharts book he claims a final message was sent from the bridge it read something like 'Commander captured, all officers gone, no ammunition, position completely over run----- will continue with bayonet, God Save the King '
