    I have just added a new page and pictures to my website, relating to Heusden in Holland. When 5th Camerons entered and liberated Heusden, Holland, on 6th November 1944, they discovered what they thought to be a church, blown up. It was in fact the town hall. It was blown up with 130 women and children inside. It is suggested that 10% of the population was lost in this one incident.
