British veterans visit the Airborne Museum
On Saturday 26 February 2022, a group of British veterans visited the Airborne Museum in Oosterbeek. The renovated museum would be opened by them on March 13, 2020. That didn't happen in the nick of time because the first lockdown related to Corona came into force on that day.
Two of the British, Ray Whitwell and Geoff Roberts, are veterans of the Battle of Arnhem. They hope to come to the Netherlands a few more times later this year.
