In 2005 Goderich Ontario hosted an event to make an addition to the Dutch communities Dedication Park for the Liberation of Holland by Canadians. As many WW2 vehicles as could be sourced were present for veterans to ride in and as a period touch the Maple Leaf Up signs were made, by me, and used to guide people to the event. Each person who brought a WW2 vehicle was given one in appreciation of their efforts. There is one on my shop wall and should be a bunch more out there somewhere.

Gordon,

thanks for your post. I bought one of those nice signs last year at the OMVA swap meet in Milton. It's great to know the history of it. Maybe I can get you to autograph it next month at Aquino.

I wont be at the Aquino weekend but, you could come over here to see how the HUP project I got from you turned out. Then we could compare signs and get yours autographed.

There have been several events and dedications for WW2 with participation of the local Dutch community to show their appreciation to the veterans. The last event was in May of 2017 when Princess Margriet of the Netherlands honoured them with her presence.

Gordon, I recall reading about Princess Margriet's visit.

More recently, the bond between our nations was strengthened by naming a tulip after veteran Don White, see http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/sh...129#post269129 and https://www.netherlandsandyou.nl/lat...he-netherlands.

Then of course, there are the bonds between MLU members globally
