Archaeologists search for war diary about Armistice at Ghent airport: "Man came to show it, we let him go"

Archaeologists in Sint-Denijs-Westrem are searching for a man who showed them a war booklet in 2014, believed to contain significant historical information about the site. The booklet, linked to a soldier from World War I, notes the Armistice was commemorated there on November 11, 1918. The archaeologists realized its importance later and are now seeking the man and any related documents or stories about the area's wartime history. The site has a rich archaeological background, revealing evidence from various periods, including military camps and a former airfield. They invite the public to share memories or artifacts related to The Loop's history.
