Veteran attends service Adult Drop-in scores Art Bell travels to visit the graves of Canadian WW2 soldiers By Ingrid Nielsen T -A Staff As the water washed up on the shores of Holland on May 8, 1945, it brought with it the overwhelming news that Holland had been liber- ated. Arthur Bell, a war veteran living in Lucan will have the chance to re -live that memory one more time. In a project co-ordinated by the Canadian and Dutch governments, Canadian war veterans, current members of the armed services, and politicians are invited to visit the cemeteries and war memorials where Canadian soldiers from World War Two are buried. This event is to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Holland celebra- tion. Over 5,000 Canadian 'soldiers are buried in Holland and by the Ger- man border. Bell is excited and deeply honoured to have been cho- sen as one of the 200 Canadian del- egates to visit these graves. Bell was a member of the First Canadian Armoury Personnel Car- rier Regiment, and he was chosen to represent them on this trip. "We carried the infantry in. Someone came up with the idea that we needed more protection for the troops, so they took a few of the tanks and took the insides right out of them, and put heavier plat- ing on the sides. Eleven men could get inside, away from shrapnel and you can travel much faster. It saved a lot of lives," says Bell. The name for this regiment that took the infantry into battle was "the Kangaroos", in the same way as a mother kangaroo carries her young in her pouch. Bell served at the tactical head- quarters for this regiment, with the I.O. officer. In total, he served six years from 1940 to 1946. Fifty years later, Bell is on his way back to Holland. He will be picked up at his house on April 30, and taken to London. He will then be taken to Toronto, and will fly to Amsterdam with the delegation on May 2. The trip is fully paid for and scheduled by the Canadian and Dutch governments. The group will visit locations such as the Holten War Cemetery, and the Groesbeak Cemetery where 2338 Canadians are buried. Shortly after, the group will travel to Nij- verdal for the National Liberation Day ceremony. "I'm really looking forward to that," says Bell. "What stands out in my mind the most," says Bell, "are the people who had the least; the Dutch people. They had so little back then, and they gave us so much, and this is another example. They were so good to us." Art Bell is on his way overseas, to honour the Canadian soldiers who were killed in World War Two, and buried in Holland. L When asked how he would like young people to remember the war, he quickly says, "I never want to see it again." Bell also says that maybe the best thing in the world for young people today would be to serve'for a year or two in the Armed Forces. Don't send them to war, he says, but give them a sense of confidence and pur- pose that will help them the rest of their lives. "They will never be able to give orders, if they don't know how to take them." Bell is a past president of the Le- gion in Lucan, a life member of the Optimist club, and past president of the Lucan Business Men's Associa- tion. a�i...
