In the section re Vught in the war it is stated that Vught was liberated by the Germans

Not true the Canadaian Army liberated Vught. Our unit 4th Canadian Armoured Division RCEME lived under tarpaulins tents in December 1944 and January 1945 right beside the concentration camp The people did not have a good supply of food and most soldiers helped by providing what they could from their rations and gifts from home.They still were able to have their St Nicklas parade. We moved to the Rhine area in the Netherland side in early February to clear this area for the crossing of the Rhine into Germany at Emmerich.we were heavily shelled in Kleve but had to stay put. We were in beside a factory which produced a syrup similar to Maple Syrup and it was also the first time we obtained fresh frozen tomatoes. When we returned to Holland to Tilburg to regroup we brought back cows and pigs from Germany≈99.227.92.104 (talk) 02:42, 9 April 2008 (UTC)  Ed Forsyth B56653 Canadian Army.4th Div RCEME    e-mail  fb56653@rogers.com
