I recently managed to get some stuff of a former colonel of the Belgian army.
He started his carrier as a war volunteer in WWI, along with his brother.
He came from Brussels and didn't speak Flemish at that time.
He's belongings were find here in Antwerp but greatest part of the history got lost...as I didn't get it first hand...
However I did found lots of his personal archive and found very interesting, funny and curious episodes of his life.
A Spanish- Belgian friendship medal with Franquist arms crest still need to be clarified, especially when you know that he rented a house to the Belgian communist party after the second WW....
There is plenty more to come after this first post.
I even found his war journal and his story how he got in the UK to join the allied forces after being captured in may 1940.
