On TV: World War II: Secrets from Above

In 2023 I was featured on the National Geographic series World War II: Secrets from Above! In Episode 4, Season 2 on Operation Market Garden I was one of the talking heads. My area of focus was the Waal Crossing and the battle for Nijmegen so we spend a lot of time on the bridge with a drone and then on the site of the Waal crossing.

We filmed on a very cold and windy day with the odd hailstorm and that shows a bit. In the end I’m very impressed with the result and happy that I didn’t mess up!

My name is Joris Nieuwint and please let me be your tour guide! As a local who has lived in the Operation Market Garden area for most of my life, this battle is now part of my DNA, and I have been studying it for almost 30 years. Since 2012 I have been active as a Battlefield Guide and over the years I’ve have taken many individuals, small and large groups, relatives of veterans, school groups, and military groups and staff rides on tours all through Europe. What began with guiding in the Operation Market Garden area has since expanded to include the Hürtgen Forest and the Battle of the Bulge and more.
