    60 years ago today men of the 53rd Welsh Division took part in what is called their finest battle which was the liberation of S-Hertogenbosch, Holland. By doing this they helped open the way to Antwerp.

    Remembering all those who fell.

    A great division under whose command the Regiment in which I served, the North Irish Horse, was placed when we arrived in Germany, January 1946.

    My family is from Den Bosch and we do remember those who came to liberate our town.
