January 5, 2021. There was a bit of excitement in the Valkenburg household yesterday. Pieter was interviewed by Bruce Frisko of CTV’s Atlantic Live At 5 broadcast about research he is doing in trying to find photos of soldiers buried in The Netherlands, with a particular emphasis at this time on names from Nova Scotia and New Brunswick from lists provided by the Canadian War Cemetery in Holten.

Thanks George. Bruce Frisko did an awesome job in putting a virtual interview together. I understand there will be a short follow-up tonight as a photo from the New Brunswick wish list was submitted to Pieter today.
Stay safe!
