Two British soldiers who were killed in Operation Market Garden in 1944 have finally been laid to rest.

Private Henry Moon and Lieutenant Dermod Green Anderson died during the September 1944 campaign in the Netherlands in which the British and Americans attempted to sieze nine bridges with the British to then cross the bridges to take over German occupied territory.

They were buried in the Commonwealth War Graves Commission's Arnhem Oosterbeek War Cemetery, which is the final resting place of more than 1,700 Second World War service personnel.
