An eleven meter high memorial pillar has erected in Oosterbeek to commemorate the airborne landings of 1944 near Arnhem (shot ext.) On top of this a monument will be placed in memory of the fallen during that event. The Dutch sculptor Jacob Maris adds the finishing touch to this monument with two assistents in the garden of his studio in Heumen (close up). They use pheumatic chisels for this.
