Location ?

Robert Jan,

This is the picture that I had in mind. I tried pinpointing the location with some residents in Holten a few years ago, but failed.

The website marked the pic as "Beuseberg", but I wonder if it could be the same location as in your picture?

Alex

p.s. Thanks for your PM, welcome back!

You see the same soldier in the tanksuit behind his bren in this footage, I think somewhere between
Laren and Zutphen

I was in the Holten area last sunday and had a quick look "north of Laren". The pictures attached, were taken along the Schipbeek on the corner of the Roudaalterweg, showing the southern bank of the Schipbeek.
The section of the Schipbeek west of the N332 road pretty much blends into the landscape, but the section east of the N332 (where attached pics were taken) shows a bank quite similar to the one in your pic, Robert Jan.

The Roudaalterweg lines up pretty well with the Beuseberg (where the pic with the foxholes was presumebly taken) , which in turn lines up with the Rijssenseweg, where the famous pic was taken of Canadian troops passing the old Holten windmill (acroos the street from Paalman cars) was taken.
