Soldiers dash across a square; a half-track fords a stream

A vehicle races past at speed; from behind the corner of a house soldiers in German steel helmets dash one at a time across an empty cobbled square towards a row of tall buildings; a half-tracked vehicle hung with branches and crowded with helmeted soldiers drives through the water of a stream, spray at its wheels. German newsreel footage of the advance into the Netherlands, May 1940.
