iPARTY - PARTY !!
Celebration for all Dutch, English, Polish, American, canadian and other nations that took part ! 
The evening after the 'Battle' there was a splendid Big Band, playing Glenn Millers music and others !
It was all in 40's style, the music, uniforms, the dancing, quite a party !! 
 
Chatta nooga choo choo... In the mood... Andrew sisters... Louis Armstrong... Mills Brothers...
W
Billy Holiday... Lonely Sweetheart... Paper Doll... Bei mir bist du schon... Moonlight Serenade... 
 
Vera Lynn... Judy Garland... Frank Sinatra... and ofcourse cosy conversations
   
Re-enactors, Veterans, Invited VIP's, they all enjoyed a marvellous evening !!
Think of Nat King Cole: Unforgettable... that's what the ladies are here, don't you agree ? 
 
Come to think of it, the music of this time will always have the qualification 'Evergreens' because of the war
 
After an easy listening 'shuffle'dance, a nice cold 'Heineken Beer' tasts wonderful !
See the beautiful lady dance !!! ....
... and the Band played the Boogie !!
 
Even as a reporter it was an honour to be part of this, enjoying such an evening and this music...
After Louis Armstrong's 'When the Saints go marching in'...
... and another bottle of tasty beer (this man was the star of the day :-))
Others prefered to have a conversation about the day, the battle, and each other...
 
... even for the Americans this must have been an unforgettable experience... 
 
... and then finally time comes to unlace your shoelaces, and seek your tent...
 
... or enjoy still the quitness of the night into the very late hours...
... and how lucky all were to have such a gordious weather these special days !
 
... and then finally time comes to unlace your shoelaces, and seek your tent...
Thank you all involved, you made so many people happy with these impressions ! Stay with us, page 9 ?  
 
Remember September 1944 - 2009  /  65 Years of Liberation & freedom !

 Still... this is not the end of the party !! Let's go see some history in present time ?
