    Hi Neil,

    Do you still need pictures from Overloon? Or any other place in the Netherlands?

    What a lovely gesture - I have a small number of RAAF lads to complete.

    Five headstones in two cemeteries. If you can assist I would be most appreciative.

    The cemeteries are far apart but I will see what I can do. Oisterwijk is no problem, it´s on my way home.
