OUR HISTORY
READ THE HISTORY OF NAILBack in the day
World War Two (WWII)

Question
Why? because of two key reasons
Special bond
First, the special bond formed between the people of Limburg and the USA in the wake of the liberation of this region in 1944-45 inter alia by American troops. There are still NAIL members today who, as children, personally witnessed the arrival of US troops in their towns, housed US soldiers in their homes, and care for the graves of the thousands of US soldiers interred in the war cemetery at Margraten. More graves of US soldiers have been “adopted” by ordinary citizens at Margraten than at any other US war cemetery. The fact that so many local people continue to visit Margraten, including Dutch schoolchildren, underscores the region’s continuing commitment to US-Dutch relations.
Collaborations
Second, the NATO and US military presence here in the region has established strong ties with US senior commanders, military personnel and civilians. Thanks to their continued support and commitment, the NAIL remains strong. In addition to the above parties, we also work together with various other organizations. For example, we work with JFC HQ in Brunssum, the NATO Air base in Geilenkirchen & the US Coast Guard Atlantic Area. Finally, we also work together with the American cemetery in Margraten.
