Default clarkair at arnhem oosterbeek

The 261 field park company used one clarkair in operation market garden. it was brought in by glider and driven a few miles into oosterbeek were it was parked by a fence at 9th field company hq never to be used again, it's hydraulics were demolished when the sappers withdrew over the rhine.

i'm not sure about the next bit but if i understand it correctly then the clarkair currently on display in the airbornemuseum hartenstein in oosterbeek is the original bulldozer that was left behind there.
