- Caption
- Fleming's description typed and written on reverse side of image reads, in full: "East end of a Treadway Bridge across the Rhine, the third thus far. Being built out simultaneously from both shores the center sections are last to be floated into place. I couldn't complete my movie story of these last links yesterday because the Engineers were afraid that the floating wreckage from the Remagen Bridge, which had just fallen, would puncture the floats. Boats were busy steering big timbers through the open way amid stream. See A-11. Near Unkel, Germ -- 19 March 45."
