But the Waal Bridge was taken and held.\u00a0With the Waal river between the German forces at the North Shore and the Canadians at the south, many Dutch resistance fighters\u00a0made nightly crossing to get downed Allied pilots from the occupied areas to the liberated part at the cost of their lives if caught. This was also the way for young men to cross and join the armies or get weapons north for the resistance.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>At the Branch we will soon have our lift up and running and plan to celebrate this after everything is completed.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>With Valentine&#8217;s Day coming and the Dinner and Dance planned&#8230; GENTLEMEN this would be an appreciated gesture to treat your LOVE for a night to remember.\u00a0So get your reservations in and book a couple of seats.
