| Nicolas & Georgette
Imagine how surprised and delighted I was to find that some of the Family still live close by.
Nicolas (88) who actually took the picture and his wife Georgette (86).
I spent 3 wonderful hours with them as they proceded to tell me of their experiences of the Scottish soldiers.
Nicolas went on to serve with the Belgian brigade of the British army and fought at the Rhine crossing and Goch.
