In September 1944, more than 100,000 people had to leave their homes in Arnhem and region, due to the Battle of Arnhem.

My father was 11 and his baby sister was 1 year old. He had to walk 30 kilometers to the city of Apeldoorn with his sister in a stroller. There they found shelter and had to stay for more than 9 months before they could walk home to their destroyed houses.

Almost 80 years after this event, I walked the same route, which is still there and tried to imagine what he must have experienced during that exodus.
