We stand in awe and bare our heads.
75th anniversary of Operation Market Garden. At the Arnhem / Oosterbeek war cemetery - September 2019.

With D-day veteran John Dennett, amongst many others!

I'm proud to say that some footage in this video has been used in this British Airways video:

We all owe that generation so much for what they did. With my deepest respects.

Being based in the Netherlands as an Air Force Association Liaison Officer, as a secondary duty for three years in Maastricht in the early eighties, , it became a labour of love and dedication and was honored to be visiting so many sites all over mainland Europe and met my wife in the process.:))


It still remains so until I leave my mortal cil It is a very special place, thank you all so very much, it so very much appreciated and I still return to visit the sites when I can.




Lest We Forget

Piękny jest ten hymn w tle... Chciałbym te uroczystości choć raz zobaczyć, póki jeszcze żyją choć ostatni którzy wtedy się bili...

Mooie zondagochtend, mooie reportage ... aan de beelden te zien moet ik zowat naast je hebben gestaan, bedankt Bart!

I was there on Sunday, very moving ceremony especially the "flower children".

[RegUnsworth]

I was there the week before to visit the grave of my father for probably the last time where I lay my wreath. Gutted to see it cleared away to make way for all this pomp.

Great video. I was there on the Sunday too, had to come two hours early to get a seat.
