March 2 Picture



March 2
The Netherlands Carillon - Arlington, VA
"So many voices in our troubled world are still unheard."

"From the People of the Netherlands to the People of the United States."

This simple dedication on the Netherlands Carillon expresses the gratitude of the Dutch people for American aid received during and after World War II. The carillon itself symbolizes the friendship between the people of the Netherlands and those of the United States... a friendship characterized by a common allegiance to the principles of freedom, justice, and democracy which has weathered temporary differences. To that friendship and those principles, the Netherlands Carillon is dedicated.
