More than two centuries ago, on November 16, 1776, Dutch forces on the Caribbean island of St. Eustatius returned the salute of the American brig-of-war Andrew Doria, thereby making The Netherlands the first country to officially salute the flag of the newly-independent United States. In November 1991, the U.S. Congress and President George H. W. Bush proclaimed Dutch-American Heritage Day, symbolizing both countries’ long lasting friendship.
