Monuments to honor the fallen from the First and the Second World War.

Monument Kolonel Vlieger Daniel Le Roy du Vivier

Born circa 1915, died on September 2, 1981 at the age of 66 in the USA.

On the Leroyplein just in front of the Castle Edelhof in Munsterbilzen, there is a propeller as a monument with a memorial plaque for RAF Wing Commander and Colonel Vlieger Daniel "Boy" Le Roy du Vivier, he lived at the Edelhof castle.

The first Belgian and perhaps also the first foreigner to command a British squadron was Daniël Le Roy du Vivier. In August 1940 this reserve officer, trained in commercial sciences, took part in the Battle of Britain with 43 squadrons.  In early 1942, after numerous missions in which he shot down several aircraft, he was promoted to commander of the 43rd and led his unit brilliantly during the raid on Dieppe.

In April 1943, Le Roy, who had meanwhile been promoted to wing commander, was sent to the Mediterranean. There he took part in the battle for Sicily as commander of the 239th Fighter-Bomber Wing. The wing consisted of five squadrons: two British, two Australian and one South African. Although he suffered a serious leg wound during the aerial battles over Sicily, Le Roy did not give up the fight and until mid-1944 he led the operations of the 324th Fighter Wing during the campaign in Italy.

After the war, Le Roy left the Air Force and went to work in the US.
