Rotterdam receives food from the Allies.

Rotterdam receives food from the Allies. On a site where German bombs once killed many defenceless persons, residents of Rotterdam, Holland, celebrate the Allied victory over Europe and their own freedom from five years of Nazi rule. They are shown cheering a Canadian relief column bringing food. Thousands of tons of food were dropped from Allied planes to the starving Dutch from May 1, 1945, until the unconditional surrender of the Germans opened the route to land transportations.
