Editing Battle of Arnhem (section)

===Intelligence===
The division was told to expect only limited resistance from German [[Military reserve|reserve]] forces. A serious challenge to their operation was not expected and many men believed that their work would lead to the ending of the war.<ref>Frost, p. 200</ref> Some – anticipating a period of occupation in Germany – packed leisure equipment in their kit or in the sea tail.<ref>Middlebrook, p. 71</ref> Browning's intelligence officer – Major [[Brian Urquhart]] – obtained information from the [[21st Army Group]] in Belgium and [[Dutch resistance]] that German armour was present around Arnhem. This was backed up with [[aerial reconnaissance]] that he ordered to be flown.<ref name="Middlebrook, p65">Middlebrook, p. 65</ref> Browning was dismissive and ordered his chief medical officer to have Urquhart sent on sick leave.<ref>Middlebrook, p. 66</ref> [[Supreme Headquarters Allied Expeditionary Force|SHAEF]] was aware that there were almost certainly two [[Panzer division]]s at Arnhem but with the operation looming chose to ignore them.<ref name="Middlebrook, p65"/> Such information would have been gleaned from [[Ultra (cryptography)|Ultra]] intercepts that the First Allied Airborne Army was not privy to and therefore could not act upon themselves.<ref name="Middlebrook, p65"/>
