  • Operation Anger (sometimes known as Operation Quick Anger), was a military operation to seize the city of Arnhem in April 1945. It is occasionally referred to as the Second Battle of Arnhem or the Liberation of Arnhem. The operation was part of the Canadian First Army’s liberation of the Netherlands and was led by the British 49th (West Riding) Division, supported by armour of the Canadian 11 Armoured Ontario Regiment, Royal Air Force air strikes and boats of the Royal Navy. The operation began on 12 April 1945 and proceeded almost perfectly to plan, as the three infantry brigades of the 49th Division leapfrogged each other through the city. Within five days Arnhem was totally under Allied control, allowing the Canadians to advance further into Axis territory. Less than two weeks after the battle a general truce brought major combat operations in the Netherlands to an end. Within four weeks the Germans unconditionally surrendered bringing the war in Europe to an end.
