Operation Varsity was the airborne drop of paratroopers on the German held side of the Rhine in Northeast Germany. It involved two airborne divisions. The British 6th Airborne landed 7,220 men, and the US 17th Airborne landed 9,650 men. Your request is to broad. You need to narrow it down. Perhaps, to regiment, or better battalion, or better yet company. Once you've gotten that far try looking at www.history.army.mil/
