At dawn the division command post sent out a large patrol to assist the reinforcements in removing their equipment from the crushed gliders (very few were crushed so badly that the equipment could not be removed immediately) and to guide them to Hiesville.
Ved daggry afsendte divisionens kommandopost en stor patrulje for at hjælpe forstærkningerne med at flytte deres udstyr fra de ødelagte svævefly (meget få var så alvorligt beskadigede, at udstyret ikke straks kunne fjernes) og lede dem til Hiesville.
