On thursday evening September 16, at 10.50 PM the IKON will broadcast the documentary "Akkers van Margraten" (Fields of Margraten). For everyone who can watch the Dutch television I would like to say, watch this. I have the DVD and it's a really impressive documentary. It's told by Americans who had to bury the troopers and by local people who volunteered to assist the Americans.
This is an opportunity for people in Holland to tell the younger generations what has happened and soldiers had to endure.
Regards,
Frank
