Editor: Eighty years!
My family and I are still so very thankful for the sacrifice that the Canadian soldiers gave by coming to the Netherlands and helping us to freedom during the Second World War.
I can still visualize the Canadian airplanes dropping containers of food for us. I remember the oranges and the white bread, which we thought was like cake; what a treat!
And 80 years later, I still remember a burning airplane falling in our neighbourhood and I think that it could have been your loved one in there.
Thank you.
I praise and thank God for what the Canadian army did for us and pray for all the families who are without their loved ones to this day.
May God keep our Canada glorious and free!!!
