Description from the seller

“ FLOWN HARDERWIJK, NETHERLANDS – FLAG LIBERATION APRIL 1945 – L.S.H. (ROYAL CANADIANS)”
Uniquely historical WWII liberation item from April 1945, consisting of an original Dutch red-white-blue flag with handwritten inscription and an accompanying old military photo.

On the white edge of the flag is, among other things, handwritten:

“FLOWN HARDERWIJK, NETHERLANDS – FLAG LIBERATION APRIL 1945 – L.S.H. (ROYAL CANADIANS)”

The mention L.S.H. (Royal Canadians) refers to Lord Strathcona’s Horse (Royal Canadians), a Canadian unit involved in the liberation of Harderwijk in April 1945.
