The British Columbia Regiment Band and Contingent - Apeldoorn Parade, 2005 May 08

I saw a photo once of the officers of the BC Regiment taken in 1941 in England. I think it was all the officers at that time....the photo showed around half not serviving the war....terrible price paid by these men. I can't think of any any other nation, like Holland, who still show this much appreciation of foreigner who had come to help liberate them. Holland is a wonderful country, I am glad that we (Canadians) could help them in their time of need.

My grandfather was part of the liberation force; he attended this event in 1995.

Wonderful, two great nations linked in a common history from Queen Wilhelmina in Ottawa to Canadian troops liberating The Netherlands. We are also proud of our Canadian cousin of Dutch heritage that has served Canada in Afghanistan.
