Biography[]
Nijmegen[]
The night before the 82nd Airborne Division secured the city of Nijmegen, Tarver, a captain in the 82nd, brought James Patterson to Nijmegen Bridge in a Willys jeep. Once at the base of the bridge, he ordered Patterson to defuse the bombs being assembled beneath the bridge, along with clearing out enemy machine gun emplacements, and destroying an anti-aircraft gun that had been shooting down American planes. Patterson is ordered to do this without the help of Tarver, and he is never seen again in-game. However, members of the real 82nd airborne crossed the river to take Nijmegen Bridge as depicted in the 1977 film "A Bridge Too Far".
