A celebration of VE-Day in Holland 70 years ago

We enjoyed a huge celebration of veterans and local dignitaries earlier today near our town hall.  A young girl wearing a Holland t-shirt was asked to join the Mayor for this event. (she did not see this coming).  These events are significant to me as I had an uncle who did not return from Italy in the second WW.  
I have included two extras of great importance, ... one was of Mick Jagger and the other of Bonnie and Clyde.  The Jag was available for a veteran who could not walk the parade (Mick did not actually own it, I just wanted your attention ... and Bonnie and Clyde's Cadillac must be the real thing as there is a bullet hole in the hood near the V)  Guns were all over the place so they must have been hiding in the bushes!
