  Vores nevø/gudsøn, Allan Nedergaard Christensen, har efter sin tid som udsendt soldat valgt at rejse verden rundt (ihvertfald det meste af den). Turen har bla. bragt ham til New Zealand, Australien, Canada, USA og senere skal han videre til Island. Undervejs har han sendt flotte, illustrerede rejseskildringer hjem. Ved familiearrangementet i august vil Allan netop være hjemkommet, og han har tilbudt at vise film/billeder for os og fortælle nærmere om alle de spændende oplevelser undervejs. Ydermere vil Allan gerne berette fra sin tid som udsendt soldat til et land, som vi hører en masse om i pressen, og en krig, som alle har en mening om. Men hvor mange har egentlig hørt om stedet og krigen fra en, som selv har været der? Det er tilbuddet til os.
Det er klart, at vi ikke skal sidde i en mørk sal og se bileder/høre foredrag, hvis der er højt klart solskin udenfor, så dette arrangement vil først blive skemalagt, når vi kan forudse vejret og har hørt deltagernes ønsker.
  By the time of the arrangement, our nephew/God Son, Allan Nedergaard Christensen, is expected to have just returned from his rucksack tour around the world (most of it, anyway). The tour has brought him to New Zealand, Australia, Canada, USA and it will probably bring him to Iceland too. Allan has already delighted his family with wonderful, illustrated reports sent home through E-mail, but there is much more to tell and show. Allan has offered to do a presentation for us. Furthermore, Allan has invited us for a personal presentation from his time as a soldier in a foreign country. Everybody knows this country and the war from the press and everybody has an opinion about it. But how many have had the opportunity to learn about it from someone with first hand experience? That is the offer for you.
Clearly, none of us want to spend a wonderful, sunny day inside a dark room, listening to a presentation and watching pictures, so we have to wait and see what weather mother nature has to offer for us and what the wishes of the partipants are, before we schedule this presentation.
