THE IMPACT OF WAR
AND THE VALUE OF FREEDOM.
Prior to Bridge to Liberation, we commemorate the Battle of Arnhem (17-25 September 1944) and the subsequent forced evacuation of the residents of Arnhem in the presence of the veterans at the official commemoration on Airborneplein. Attendees then give a salute of honor to the veterans who still return to Arnhem every year with their families, keep the stories alive and pass them on to future generations.
