Toch weer activisten die de herdenking in Wageningen proberen te verstoren. Misbruik maken van de vrijheid van meningsuiting. Vrijheid waar vele mensen voor zijn gestorven. Dit is ongepast. Goed dat er werd ingegrepen.

No military vehicles this year at Moscow’s Victory Day parade! Maybe Putin should ask Zelensky for help. Ukraine has quite an impressive parade of Russian military equipment on offer.

On this day in 1948, the aircraft carrier HNLMS Karel Doorman was commissioned. It was the last aircraft carrier of the Royal Netherlands Navy and remained in service until 1968. Originally, there were plans for three aircraft carriers. 😳

The Atlantic Wall was seriously over the top. Even the toilets were bunkered so the men of the Third Reich could poop in safety. It all stemmed from Hitler’s traumatic experiences on the Western Front during the First World War.

The Dutch Army used the Bofors 40L70 anti-aircraft gun (132 units) from 1959 to 2005. By 2005, the aircraft it was designed to counter had long since ended up in museums. Most of the systems are now being used in Ukraine.

Direct fire with a 120 mm mortar? Because why not? In 1977, the Dutch Army conducted an experiment mounting a 120 mm mortar on the carriage of an 25-pounder gun. Normally, a mortar fires indirectly with a high-arcing trajectory. They wanted to find out what the effect would be when firing directly.
