As U.S. Memorial Day always is last monday of May, tradition is that on the sunday prior there is the annual commemoration to remember the fallen at Margraten Cemetery (Limburg).
This year's 75th ceremony unfortunately will be very sober (unlike usual NO massed attending, due wellknown reasons), but on the other hand it is officially announced the king will lay the first reef. (Live) coverage will be from a.m. on via L1-tv, (Ziggo713)

I'd be very surprised if the traditional expected F-16 4-box (+1 spare; presumed from EHLW) for 'Missing Man'-honour wouldn't fly, but someone to confirm as to attend on certain (social) distance....
Especially this year's special marking (which collides with a worldwide pandemic virus) compare and realise 'some' liberty we hand in now, with the never to forget sacrifices the fallen made.
After all we were not liberated for nothing
Remember them & stay safe!
