I regret that I never got to meet Arnold.

The Groesbeek windmill photo you posted reminds me of an unidentified image in the Archive collection from the Regt's unofficial photographer, Cpl Grant Herbison. I don't know if it the same windmill, or the significance of why he photographed this one?

The picture of Cpl Herbison is of a different windmill. Have you any clue where he took the picture? There were many windmills in Holland back then...

Read this entry for the significance of the windmill at Groesbeek:
