Grateful for America

"I am always grateful to America, they were so good to us"

For 6 weeks American soldiers picked little children up from morning til evening, brought them to a villa by the ocean, where American doctors and nurses fed them back to normal. Bep, Anneke and other children had malnutrition. I was so grateful what they did for my two little sweethearts.

Everything was broken up during the war, no airport, railroads. Then America send tons and tons of food, clothing. I am always so grateful to America, they were so good to us. And I thanked my Heavenly Father and his Son for all the good. I knew I would live and see the end of the war. I was so grateful and with gratitude in my heart, I thanked them.
