Lest we forget!
This week marks the end of World War II 70 years ago. Today I visited the War Cemetery Jonkerbos. It is one smaller ones but still has around 1500 graves. Most of the fallen soldiers came from the United Kingdom.
Every time it shocks me when I see the age of these brave men. Most of them are between the age of 18 and 25. I cannot imagine how it must have been like to be send to war at the age of 18. To fight in another country. Knowing that there is a big chance you will never go back.
I am grateful that those men came to fight for us. To fight for our freedom!
