More sad news: Pte Geoff van Rijssel, XXI Indep Para Coy
Hi Guys, yet more sad news with the passing of another Arnhem Veteran that I had the priviledge to know.
Geoff van Rijssel served with the XXI in North Africa, Italy, Holland and Norway.
Those of you that have seen the film "Their's is the Glory" will recognise the name as Geoff played himself in the film.
I met Geoff several times at the reunions over the years.
He is survived by his wife Millie.
RIP.
Cheers, Ade.

Another one gone to re-org with the battlegroup.
Never knew you Geoff, but thanks for what you, and every other allied soldier did.
RIP.
