[QUOTE="hillsdown, post: 877198, member: 5106"] It is Remembrance Day in Canada Kathie, the Canadian version of your Veterans/Armistice Day, always has been and always will be on Nov.11th. ;-) As for history, yes I am very grateful and forever in dept for the Canadian forces that stayed back in The Netherlands instead of pushing through, to keep my husbands family and friends safe and making sure they had food to eat ,not just tulip bulbs. V-E day in Ommen the city close to where my husband grew up ,used to get hundreds of thousands of visitors during that time ,mostly Canadians who had served or their family had served and are treated like gold . :D There is also a cemetery near by where the allied forces are buried ; I try to visit each time I go over there . In the area we live in now, in Aberta we had 5 close neighbors that since have passed away ,they all served in WW11 and were stationed in Holland , we spent many hours with them listening to the stories of their heroic efforts and the sacrifices they each made during that time, am blessed to have met them and to have known them .
