What if an earlier "Market Garden" , instead of trying to capture the bridges to Arnhem and circumvent the Siegfried Line went straight for Antwerp and the clearance of the Scheldt estuary of German forces?
How would this improve the logistical situation considering although Antwerp had been taken in September, it couldn't be used until Nov 28th due to supplies being diverted to Market Garden from the Canadians forces who where ready to clear the Scheldt estuary thus blocking up to 240 cargo vessels from the port?
Would this be possible?
Would it have any positive impact on the Allies ability to enter Germany and to end the war earlier?
