Joris Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 This is what the "usual" commemorations look like. Friday 19:00h, wreath laying at the Airborne square at the foot of the John Frostbridge afterwards you can meet the veterans in the city hall. Saturday 10:00h memorial para drop at Ginkel Heath near Ede After the drop: Race to the Bridge with WWII vehicles and re enactors A lot more wreaths are laid on saturday at various places in and around Arnhem. Sunday xh (morning) commemorative service on the Airborne cemetery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enigma Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Not Arnhem but Eindhoven. 18 Sept, drive from the Belgian border to the city. Only 50 vehicles do the entire drive, the rest will peel of before parading past the mayor and veterans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
