I SAW COMBAT IN THESE VERY WOODS // Battlefield Return // The Netherlands

#whatawonderfulworld 🇺🇸🇺🇸 Battlefield Return: The Netherlands and Belgium 🇳🇱 🇧🇪 Thanks to generous donations from people like you, we were fortunate enough to take 9 WWII veterans back to Europe to celebrate the 75th Anniversary of the liberation of The Netherlands and Operation Market Garden. Can you believe #TomRice is 98 and still parachuting out of airplanes!? This was his 63rd jump and he's says he's not stopping anytime soon! This was beyond anything we have experienced so far. Every town was celebrating and everyone came out to show appreciation to our guys. There was one day that we drove for 20 miles from town to town in WWII vehicles, and in front of every home and lining the streets, were the families that lived there; waiting to wave and thank our vets! It was overwhelming for the veterans to see that after 75 years, the people still remember and continue to honor those that liberated their country. Every time the vehicles stopped, people would rush to shake the hand of a vet and personally thank them for their freedom. It’s hard to describe or even show in a video, but the sense of pride and honor you see in these gentlemen just makes you want to stand and cheer! Our youngest vet was 95 and our oldest was 100! For some of them, this was their first time back! Can you imagine what it would be like to return 75 years later to the place that holds so many memories; some bad, some good? The stories and emotions that flooded out of these 9 amazing men really helps you to appreciate the sacrifices made to ensure our freedoms that we enjoy today. It’s so important for us to not only take these guys back, but to be able share with all of you what they experience on these programs. Prepare yourself to laugh, cry, cheer and be inspired! Thank you so much to Liberty Maastricht, Jumbo stores, the town of Brunssum, the city of Valkenburg and Landal Kasteeldomein De Cauberg for organizing so many of the events and accommodations for our guys. And a special thank you to Mike Wall (NMLS 1179003) and Steve Novotny (NMLS 376423) of @willamettevalleybank for making this video happen! “Taking care of the ones who took care of us” If you like what we are doing, please consider making a donation to our non-profit foundation! Every little bit helps as we are preparing to bring veterans back to Europe again in May for the 75th Anniversary of the end of the war! (VE Day) Our time with these men is short! Help us honor as many vets as we can while they are still with us! Thank you! MB01H2AVGOJYPOR
