German war cemetery in Ysselsteyn (Holland)

So many grave's,



Again the grave of a woman, I found about ten of them only a few meters from each other

[rexmundi]

In these two photo's even more grave's of woman. Helferinnen? I made the photo's to research them when I have more time,

Another grave that cought my attention,



The ceremony and speeches where very interessting, I almost forgot to make photo's

[rexmundi]

The Dutch Lt. General Sonneveld and a German General



Retired General Major F.J. Brackel, Brons Cross, Kommandeur Bundesverdienstkreuz etc

[Revellations]

Regarding all the women..are all the death dates 22.2.44. Perhaps a bombing raid....I quite can't see the Death dates but this could be a lead to follow up. Thank you for sharing the photos.

On another note - is there an online search facility for this cemetary if you wish to look up soldier's names?

Cheers

I think Its very Important

I think it is so important to remember the german fallen all that generation on both side were very brave........ and I think it is only right and proper to remember and honour them...........I always see it as someones son or Brother or Daughter, father, mother, all had lives and were all loved by someone.......so it really pleases me to see such a beautiful cemetery to them
