This is the story about 2nd Lt. Herbert Shulman, a pilot flying a C-47 Dakota filled with paratroopers for Operation Market Garden.
His C-47 is hit by anti-aircraft fire, but he puts the mission first and drops the stick of paratroopers on the drop zone. He then holds the burning aircraft level long enough for his crew to get out, before jumping himself. His parachute does not open. The full story is in The Last Flight of the Sonya.
At the Cemetery in Erp the propeller of his C-47 has been preserved as a monument, and in this video, we are going to visit the drop zone, crash site, and the monument.
