Here is a great "then & now" - we hope to recreate this picture in 2020!

Cpl. WJ (William James) Shipton on the left in 1945, on the right is Joeri Quintyn with his Harley-Davidson WLC in the same markings of Cpl. Shipton's:

Here is a current link to the website featuring this tribute WLC: http://www.theliberator.be/liberator6.htm
"Inspired by the wartime image, Joeri Quintyn marked his 43WLC5668 accordingly just prior to the Belgian Wings&Wheels Show on August 8th 2004. The white line under the insignia was still missing."
