  • 01-04-2025 Chaplain Karen Meeker

    What a solemn honor to join the Sunset March on 1 April 2025. The 82d Airborne Division was my first assignment as a US Army Chaplain in the late ’90s. I have jumped many times on the Drop Zone at Fort Bragg named in the memory of those tough, courageous paratroopers who captured the bridge over the Waal River vicinity Nijmegen during Operation Market Garden. Thank you, Peter and team, for keeping their memory alive. I commit to carrying the light of their sacrifice in word and deed. Airborne All the Way!

    I definitely had some issues with the language barrier, but it was great to have a chance to do the walk. Please pass along my thanks to your entire group. My father was aware of the support from the people of The Netherlands and he was very appreciative of it. He always wanted to return here someday, but he never got the chance. It meant a lot to me to be able to come in his place. Alan Driver

    North Shore Legacy Tour: 80th Anniversary of D-Day On June first 2024 our 273 canadian students, teachers and local tour guides participated in the daily Sunset March held in Nijmegen at the place the Waalcrossing took place on September 20th 1944. Each evening a veteran walks the same route using the newly build bridge call The Crossing. 48 lamppost join the veteran and all the participants from south to north on its way to the famour town of Arnhem. Both the crossing and the battles in Arnhem are captured in the movie a Bridge to far. And as part of our tour for the 80th anniversary of D-Day, we joined a group of about 15 Norwegian Veterans doing the Sunset March. They were also heading for Normandy, but on their motorcycles. Our full journey can be seen here. https://www.eftours.ca/educational-tour/DDEC?utm_source=brochure&utm_medium=offline&utm_campaign=tourcode Craig Caldwell Director of Schools Anglophone North School District, NB Canada

    Leading the Sunset March as the Veteran of the Day alongside fellow veterans from Norway, the Netherlands, and Canada is both an honor and a tribute to those who sacrificed their lives crossing the Waal River. The march and the ceremony at the memorial stones are profoundly moving moments to remember our fallen comrades and to reflect on the value of peace today. Peace requires continuous effort and investment from society and government, but the cost of war is far greater—lives, democracy, and freedom. I am deeply grateful to Team 31 for all they do to honor those who gave their lives in the crossing of the Waal River. LTC John SolemNorwegain Army
