An interesting story about one Dutchman's salute to the Allied Airmen that fell over the Netherlands in WWII. What an honourable and good man.

Every 4th of May at 20.00 hours, the country observes a moment of silence to remember those who died. All traffic halts, even the trains stop for three minutes.

Liberation Day, the 5th of May is full of festivities to commemorate the event. "Keep Them Rolling" are regular participants that drive their WWII vehicles through the country.

Thanks for sharing that story.
Cheers,
