How about a couple of notables from Arnhem...Major Robert Cain and Sgt Baskeyfield, both from the Staffordshire Regiment, but part of the 'airborne brotherhood'. Both awarded VC's for their parts in the battle. Cain for his inspired leadership (and single handedly taking on German tanks with a PIAT). Baskeyfield was killed in action, after single handedly manning an anti tank gun after its crew had been killed/wounded. He was subsequently awarded a posthumous VC.
Cain's original Denison, worn at Arnhem, is now on display at The Staffordshire Regiment Museum.
