May 2015: the Dutch celebrate 70 Years of Freedom

70 Years of Freedom – Stories by WWII Veterans

Quote:

On May 1st, a rather special group of people left the airport of Toronto, Canada to visit the 70th anniversary of freedom in the Netherlands. This group, consisting of over 40 Canadian WWII Veterans, counted their youngest traveller at 88 (who was 15 when he was deployed, forging his passport so he could fight) and their oldest at 97.
