Friday 18 September 2009: in the afternoon the Massed Pipes and Drums Band is performing in the streets of the old heart of Arnhem. In the evening, about 7 pm they go in a slow march towards the Airborne square, to grace the real Market Garden Commemoration. You find everything about laying wreaths, speeches, national anthems of Poland, United Kingdom and The Netherlands (Mazurek Dabrowskiego, God save the queen, Wilhelmus), Dutch Hymn 293 Last Post, respectfull silence to the casualities and the reveille. The completion of the ceremony was at the Arnhem town hall, of which I taped the performance of the Massed Pipes and Drums Band.
Thanks to God for sending deliverance.
Thanks to those who lost their lives for the victory. Rest in peace!

Wordt er altijd weer emotioneel bij, bagpipes en Marketgarden.

They would do what the Scottish regiments have been doing to the enemy for hundreds of years, they would simply walk all over them!
