Thanks Steve,

That's what we are doing it for. During the first weekend of may our museum opens its doors again for the season and we will be visited by some ex-99 squadron crew who unfortunately are dwindling in numbers as some years ago we had up to ten of these veterans visiting.

And the real problem lies with the Dutch gouvernment who put the responsibility of the decision to recover a wreck with the local mayors, and you can expect that they think that spending such a large amount of money on the recovery of scrap with missing persons a waste. We have a different opinion of course.

However we have a huge backlog of crashes to work through the coming decades, so we keep on putting pressure on those mayors.

Don't forget these veterans risked their lives to make sure we live in freedom. The least we can do is trying to locate missing persons and get them the care and attention they so richly deserve.

Cheers

Cees
