Liberty Tour, The Hague: 5 May 2017

[Hanno Spoelstra]

This year I am participating again in the Liberty Tour. This tour follows the route taken by the Dutch Irene Brigade to liberate the Western part of Holland. This was done after the German Army surrendered on May 5, 1945, so there was no fighting along the way. But the Allied Forces had to regain control over the occupied area.

The vehicles taking part in this tour are escorting the runners who have routes all across the country to bring the Liberty Flame from Wageningen, where the German Army surrender was signed on May 5, 1945, to many towns across the country.

If you have a chance to join, please do as this is a really nice one-day event.
