Hi all,
My name is Peter van der Linden from The Netherlands.
Some time ago a signed up for this forum.
After some start-up troubles with my account its finally possible to post something.
So an introduction seems the best way to start out.
Some members on this forum I already know because of my travelling and other forum memberships.
I'm interested in ww2 like many others on a brought side and I like to read about both sides of the fence.
I live near the Son Eindhoven drop-zone's where also Airborne Engineers fought the Nazi's
I am a regular visitor of Normandy and The Bulge to visit former battle area's, museum’s and points of interest.
I am doing some research about the ww2 history of my village.
That comes down to the German occupation, Market-Garden and the Liberation.
In short German Wehrmacht and SS-allied Paratroops and Troop carriers and allied liberation forces in my area.
All I learn is made into a story to share someday so the sacrifice that is made for our freedom will be remembered.
Peter.
