Arnhem citizen

Rating: 10/10 (26 July 2018)

As a resident I am, logically, interested in the history of my city. And knowing what went on here, I heard the stories from my grandmothers/fathers, they were just children at that time, it was so inspiring and emotional too watch this. It made me realize what my grandparents went trough. And realizing the fact that people, who probably never heard of Arnhem, risked there lives to liberate us, i don't know, it moves me a lot. I'm so glad and proud that every year our city and our local football club(Vitesse) pays our respect tho what those people did, every year during the airborne remembrance, Vitesse plays a special airborne match, during the league(no friendly) on this day they have a special kit, in the colors of the 1st airborne division, all the veterans that fought in this battle are invited to come over, including family, and a lot of other British tourists, and it's amazing to see how my city still pays their tribute.
Lest we forget!
