The Liberation of Groningen (NL) by the Canadians April 1945

Images of the liberation of Groningen, which was liberated by bitter fighting from April 13 to 16, 1945 by the Canadian 2nd Infantry Division supported by tanks of the Fort Gray Regiment of the 2nd Armored Brigade. Before and during these battles, extensive damage was caused to the buildings in the center, where capital buildings were completely or partially destroyed. While the fighting continues in the north of the city, residents of the center and southern part are already starting to put their affairs in order. Open-air concert by a bagpipe band.
No sound, just images.

I am a historical fiction author specialised in WW2 and my most recent book was on the Dutch resistance. Hence this video. You can find my books at www.hannahbyron.com
