Identification :List of 155 "Glens" in Hilversum, June 1945.

[Wigger K. F. van der Horst]

Soldiers of the Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry Highlanders
155 'Glens' in front of School no.16 (1948: Ruysdaelschool) Ruysdaellaan 6, Hilversum.

The following NEW list of names was created with support from Veterans of the Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry Highlanders, their children, but also other family members. Their participation was possible to "Glens" in other pictures to identify. Moreover, info is added to most pictures: location, date, and names of the depicted "Glens", general info and the name of the legal owner of the picture.
Thanks to the Veterans: Mr. JRD Forbes, Mr. MJ Jordan, Mr. JA McDonald, Mr. JW Stevens, Mr. J Sullivan, Mr HW Towes, Mr. D Vidler and about 120 family members of SD&G-Highlander Veterans.
