On September 20, 1944, the headquarters of the 101st Airborne Division moved from Son to Henkenshage Castle in Sint-Oedenrode. On September 24, General Horrocks, commander of the British XXX Corps, was informed that he could make one last attempt to reach the British troops north of the Rhine. If this attempt failed, Operation Market Garden would fail.
