May I introduce myself my name is Roger Zoontjens and I life in the Netherlands Kerkrade. I was always interested in WW2. My grandfather told me a lot about WW2. I read a lot of books about WW2. But after years (2013 & 2014) we decided to visit the Normandy landing beaches. I read a lot about D-day but by reading a book you cannot see in what for a dimension this operation is been carried out. We visited also the cemeteries along this beaches. This had such impact to us (me and my family) that we decided that we like to adopt a grave at the American Cemetery at Margraten Holland.I wrote a letter to adopt a grave program. After a while we get l letter back. There was written in that all graves are adopted and it could take at least a half year to adopt a grave. We were terrified to here this. Happily, after a few months we got a letter again and they told us there was a grave free for adoption. There begins the story of my investigation and my passion to the adopt a grave programm. On the 5 may 2015 we received our Adoption certificate from Sgt. Paul R. Scott.After we visited his grave at Margraten we like to now more about this soldier who has given his ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.There fore i started a investigation and i build a website.I know there are a Lott of relatives witch like to have a picture from there relatives grave. There fore i volunteered to do this. At last one time on the two months i am at the cemetery at margraten and it would be a honor for me to this for there relatives.I hope we have a positive contribution to honor our liberators.
