A poignant moment
She was pictured laying a wreath at the foot of the Cross of Sacrifice in tribute to the troops who fought in Operation Market Garden in 1944.
Operation Market Garden was intended to create a route for the Allied forces into northern Germany.
It saw around 1,900 allied airborne troops from the 4th Parachute Brigade jump from military aircrafts into the occupied Netherlands in an attempt to capture the bridges at Arnhem.

Anne delivers Charles’s speech
During the event, the mother-of-two said on behalf of the monarch: “Eighty years ago, on this very weekend, Operation Market Garden was under way in this region of the Netherlands.
“An ambitious joint airborne and ground forces operation designed to seize crucial bridges to enable the advance into Germany, its ultimate aim was to end the war within a matter of months.
“The friendships made during those difficult days of September 1944 between the Dutch and their liberators continued after the war.
“I saw this for myself five years ago when, as Colonel in Chief of the Parachute Regiment, I attended the 75th anniversary commemorations.”
She continued: “Tragically, despite the endless courage of all those who served in an operation whose renown echoes through the generations, the Netherlands had one more terrible winter to suffer before liberation finally arrived.
“Today, on this 80th anniversary, it is with a deep sense of gratitude and humility that we remember all those in the British,
Allied and Commonwealth forces who served and died fighting for our freedom.
“Let us also remember those magnificently courageous members of the Dutch resistance and gallant civilians who endured so much during the Second World War.”
