On September 17, 1944, paratroopers of the American 501st Parachute Regiment land at the castle. They jumped off the wrong lock. Your actual drop zone is six kilometers away, at Veghel. There they have to secure the bridges as fast as possible. Through this error, the inhabitants of Heeswijk get to know a very special priest, the almoner Father Sampson.
