Bethel University BoB tour: On Jan 11, 2010 Bethel University from Arden Hills Minnesota, visited the Eindhoven veterans house. The visit was linked to their tour across Europe, following the footsteps of the ‘Band of Brothers’. The tour was meant to give students insight in the job that their soldiers did in Europe during WWII. To get more appreciation for what ‘the Greatest Generation’ did. In the Netherlands, Leoni Wenstedt of the Screaming Eagles of WWII foundation, took the time to organise this visit for the university. Together with the veterans house she invited Dutch citizens who either lived or fought during WWII. These people shared their stories with the American students. Below you see some pictures of the event. If you want to read Bethel University’s article about the tour, click here.
