On Thursday the 1st of September, Pegasus Pipes & Drums will open the exhibition ‘Out of Ammo’ of the Arnhem War Museum.
The exhibition in the Walburgiskerk provides an overview of daily life in wartime and of the fighting at the Rhine Bridge during the Battle of Arnhem. For this purpose, situations have been simulated in various themes with original objects from that time, such as vehicles, weapons and equipment of German and English soldiers. The name of this exhibition refers to the legendary words Major Digby Tatham-Warter spoke out at the foot of the Rhine Bridge when, due to a lack of ammunition, he was forced to surrender to the Germans.
Unique are the original parachutes that can be seen fully opened in the domes of the church. The exhibition is an impressive experience and a must for anyone interested in the battle of Arnhem.
The exhibition “Out of Ammo” is part of the Arnhem War Museum. A visit to the largest private war museum is definitely worth a visit.
