I recently received a 450-page book from the Netherlands, entitled Opdat wij niet vergeten, Lest We Forget. Published on the 75th anniversary of liberation, it commemorates the bravery and lives of very many Allied armed forces who fought and died in the area of Gendringen-Wisch, Netherlands from 1940-1945. The epilogue includes an article by the area mayor and an article by me about my father’s experience in Gendringen, the first Dutch town he and his family lived in after escaping Germany in 1938.
