Thanks, and thanks for pointing it out. I learning so much on these threads, thanks again so much for posting them.
The Baldwin article seems to be in better touch with the need to clear the Scheld estuary than certain of the Allied command at this point, even though I read something about Eisenhower giving top priority to clearing the Scheld estuary but his orders not followed (by Monty?).
In one of yesterday's reports of the airplane meeting, Eisenhower mentioned this priority, and Monty assured Eisenhower that the estuary would be cleared.
