September - Marking the liberation of The Netherlands

Every year around this time we in the southern part of The Netherlands remember the sacrifices of young American, Canadian, Polish and British men liberating our country. This week there are several events planned around the liberation of Eindhoven and Operation Market Garden. I’m planning on attending several of these events and was wondering if any of you Dutch FC-ers will be there too? I’ll be at the heath near Meierijstad for the 101 Airborne Assault Demo on Tuesday and will be covering the large para exercise Falcon Leap from Eindhoven Air Base on Thursday.

Let me know if you will be around and maybe we can meet and catch up.

Hi Roger, Iwas at Eindhoven today. Weather did not play ball, at least in the morning.
Will be at Eindhoven tomorrow morning (media day, am) and possibly going to Ginkelse Heide in the afternoon (assuming there will be a paradrop in the afternoon also).

See you in the morning then. Depending on the time of the drop I might take the kids and go the “hei” in the afternoon.
