1) I would like to know the - exact - locations where the Stormont, Dundas & Glengarry Highlanders stayed in the Netherlands. Not only the name of the village or city, but specific the exact date and the name of that location, perticular during their stay at Elspeet.
2) Also I would like to know also maybe more locations at Hilversum where they stayed between May 19th and June 14th 1945. The're some locations I know already:
- The Ruysdaelschool - Ruysdaellaan 6 - 155 SD&G-Highlanders (among them the Mortar Platoon Donihee - 107 found by Name - If you're interested: the list with the names and a detailed photo by e-mail: wiggervdhorst27@planet.nl -
