This day often goes out to my grandfather, who could not leave the war behind until the last day of his life.

I often think about the moments where I and @wrestlingdante sat at the table and listened to my grandfather’s stories about everything he had experienced during and after the war, something I keep sharing with others as they are stories that are forever remain important for the Netherlands and perhaps the world.
