PRESIDIO OF MONTEREY, Calif. -- The Defense Language Institute Foreign Language Center celebrated the upcoming Memorial Day with a ceremony on Presidio’s Soldier Field May 21. The ceremony included a solemn invocation by the Chaplain, a 21-gun salute rendered to fallen service members, firing of the ceremonial cannon, performances by the DLIFLC Joint Service Student Choir, and unveiling of the Dedication Plaque in honor of DLIFLC graduates killed in action during the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Special honors were given to Spc. Christopher A. Landis, whose name was added to the Dedication Plaque this year. Landis died February 2014 in Afghanistan from wounds caused by a rocket-propelled grenade while conducting operations in the Kapisa province. Landis enlisted as a cryptologic linguist in the Army in March 2011 and was a DLIFLC Arabic language graduate. He was assigned to 2nd Battalion, 3rd Special Forces Group (Airborne), Fort Bragg, N.C. when he lost his life in service to his country.
Following the ceremony, the Presidio Garrison hosted a special reception event for Gold Star Families who were in attendance.

A fascinating bi-fold English language tourist brochure to "Neighbouring Zeeland", the Dutch province, and issued by the National Tourist Office that was then based in Den Haag/The Hague. With fine colour covers, it gives many details of travel, transport, locations and destinations in the province that forms the south western extremities of the Netherlands. At the time the province had direct ferry services to England via the lonstanding Flushing/Vlissingen to Folkestone steamer services that are heavily advertised in this brochure; however it is a tipped in notice, issued by the operator the Zeeland Steamship Company (Stoomvaart Maatschappij Zeeland) that helps give a date to the brochure. From 1 January 1927 the company's services transferred to Harwich and were then operated in conjunction with the London & North Eastern Railway's ferry services to the Hook of Holland/Hoek van Holland. This change somewhat renders much of the brochure's advertising slightly erroneous!
There are many other pages of information and adverts, a selection of which are scanned here. The busy central spread shows a mixture of information and photographs. The main feature is a route map of the Zeeland Company's Flushing to Folkestone ferry route indicating the safety of the route, 92 miles of sea, thanks to land features and seamarks such as lightships and lighthouses. Needless to say it is this page that has tipped to it the poster advertising the change in route from Folkestone to Harwich. The photos show the interior of the Grand Hotel Britannia in Flushing/Vlissingen, one of the SMZ's vessles, and a picture of local inhabitants outside the church at Koudekerke on Walcheren.
The Hotel, built in 1885 and renamed as the 'Britannia' in 1924, was used by the occupying German forces during WW2 and subsequently destroyed during the Allied Liberation of the Netherlands. A modern, brutalist structure was constructed to replace it but this was closed and demolished in c.2010.

Half way during our drive, we stopped to buy petrol/ gas, and to use the little boy's room and to get some snack.
My agenda today is to visit a Medieval castle called Huis Bergh, about 140 km southeast of Amsterdam. Originally I was to take the train and local bus to get to the town of 's-Heerenberg. Luckily, two of my Dutch friends Chris and Michiel said they had never been there also, and were curious and kind enough to insist on joining me, and driving me there :D
This art installation was intended to celebrate Queens and its diversity. It is estimated more than 700 languages are spoken in Queens. This sculpture featured more than 700 stripes, just like the languages in Queens.
