| Comments | Thank you for a great website. I have tried for some time to find information regarding my father Major John Fraser Clark M.C. and was interested to read the refernces to him in the war diaries. He passed away in Johannesburg South Africa some years ago and always remained very private about his years in the army. I also remember his good friend Major Hal D Stewart who visited us many times in South Africa. A true gentleman if ever there was one. |

| How did you find this website? | A piece of paper was left behind on the grave of John Kennedy in Mierlo/Netherlands |
| Comments | We wanted to find more information about the 131st who helped to free our land. After 60 years we are still very very grateful. I'm 35 years old, married and 4 children. My grandfather went into hiding. He was a horse trainer in the Dutch army. He died in 1978, but told his grandchildren a lot of world-war-stories. Now, my husband Matthew, me and the kids visit every year one of the war-cemetery in the neighbourhood at the 4th of may (remembrance day in the Netherlands). Each kid has a few smal plants and chooses graves to put one there. In this way they (and we) read the names, age etc. of the soldiers and also the emblems the kids find great. Desiree Jansen |
