GROESBEEK, HOLLAND - DE MALLEMOLEN

Groesbeek's Hospitality Evening courtesy of Grosbeek citizens for the 82nd Airborne at "De Mallemolen" or "Mad Windmill"

82nd Logo on the stage left no doubt who the party was for

Stage Decor was "deja vu all over again" as parachute silk and glider wheels were on display, all, of course, being WW-II artifacts.  Background music on the piano set the mood as guests shared war stories
