utch people to welcome
liberators of 40 years ago
By Lloyd "Casey"Casmore
After the cold winter of
1944 the Dutch people were
miserable. There was no
food on the tables and very
little clothing to spare. Many
tears were shed for lost
families, neighbors and
friends. But there was a new
joy in most hearts and, at
last, hope for the future...and
above all gratitude to the
Canadian soldiers who had
liberated Holland. The
Canadian boys had lost
many comrades in their
battle for the freedom of
Holland.
Apeldoorn, in the province
of Gelderland in eastern
Holland, was liberated on
April 19, 1945. After five
black years of war the
survivors celebrated by
welcoming the Canadians
into their homes.
Holland has been reborn
out of the ruins of 40 years
ago. Bombed cities, broken
bridges and devastated
families have been rebuilt
and re -united into an
economically -healthy
country. The hopses are
clean, there is plenty to eat
and drink...and there always
is room for a guest. Now, 40
years later, the cities of
Apeldoorn, Nijmegen,
Deventer and Groningen
have invited the Canadian
veterans back to Holland to
commemorate Bevrijding
(Liberation) 1945.
Hundreds of Dutch
'families have responded to
local newspaper requests to
provide bed and breakfast
for the Canadian veterans
who are expected to visit
Dutch friends between April
28 and May 8. Busses will be
wating at Schipol Airport
(Amsterdam) when the
visitors arrive. Music will
greet them at the various
' iti..Q where host families
will take the veterans to
their homes.
Over a 10 -day .period the
veterans and their friends
will attend numerous events.
On April 30, the birthday of
former Queen Juliana will be
celebrated. Local festivities
to mark Liberation Day will
take place throughout the
country. Three days later, on
May 3, the Canadian am-
bassador will open an ex-
position called "Here Come
the Canadians", com-
memorating the arrival of
the Canadians during World
War II.
Besides'all of the planned
celebrations there also will
be time to remember war
victims. Cemeteries in
Groesbeek and Holten,
where Canadians left fallen
comrades, will be the scene
of memorial services. Here
lie the Canadians who fought
for the freedom of Holland.
THE COMPUTER CLASS at last Wednesday's North Huron Science Fair produced
three winners. They are Chris Michie, East Wawanosh, first; Ron Williams, Grey Cen-
tral, second and Murray Smith, Grey Central, third. Senior public school students
from the northern half of Huron County competed at last week's fair and the winners
will go on to the county -wide fair this week in Exeter.

I served with the Perth
Regiment during the war for
more than five years, and
the Perths have a very close
relationship with the
Netherlands. After the
regiment left its "Perths'
Barracks" in Stratford m
1940 for guard duty at
Niagara Falls, the Perth
Barracks was taken over by
the Netherlands troops.
Ili 1940 the Dutch royal
family, along with -many
citizens and military people,
managed to escape ahead off
the German occupation
forces and fled to England
and other points of refuge. In
1941 it was decided to
regroup the Netherlands
army in Canada for further
training. Once the Dutch
troops were installed in
Stratford the building
became known as the
"Juliana Barracks", after
Princess Juliana, who was
living in Ottawa and later
became Queen Juliana of the
Netherlands. The future
queen made several visits to
Stratford during the war
years.
Although the Dutch troops
were stationed in Stratford
for only about two years
many close friendships
developed between
Netherlands soldiers and
airmen and the people of
Stratford. Several of the
Dutch troops married
Stratford girls. Last year
Antom Ruige brought his
wife, Amaryke, from
Holland to see where he had
been 42 years ago. He
trained with the Royal
Netherlands Military Flying
School and was stationed
with the Princess Irene
Brigade in 1942. After the
war Mr. Ruige became chief
pilot for K, L, M., Dutch
Royal Airlines, one of the
largest public air carriers in
the world. He now is retired.
At the end of April about
100 Perth Regiment veterans
will be leaving for Holland
and I will join them for the
celebrations.
