The "Dutch Brothers" Both Veterans of the US Army and proud of it. Winfred age 86 and younger brother nick name "Dutch" age 84 both immigrants that came to America in 1951 after surviving WW2 in Holland. Both proud citizens served with honor and respect as they know how great our country is.

They recalled seeing the V1 ad V2 rockets that were fired at England by the Nazi's. The allied bombers and the raids over Holland. How the Nazi's tried to use the civilian population as human shields around their military targets. How they and their parents were so grateful when they were permitted to come to America. They told of arriving in NY on a container ship and 48 hours later put on a bus headed for Salt Lake City. They stepped up to serve America in the Army.
