Buck does not give me the answers to these.... so I am free to make clues.

Buck's signature is usually an image of something close to home, his interests or past experiences..... This has to be Holland... somewhere!

It is a ferry crossing on the River Waal, that according to information found on google earth ....
From Jan 21 to Jan 39, 1945 the Lincoln & Welland Regiment of the Canadian army fought a garrison of German paratroopers for possesion of this small ferry slip (Kapelsche Veer) on the River Maas. (The slip has since filled in). Despite a heavy preliminary artillery bombardment a canoe-borne water assault and dive-bombing by Spitfires, the Canadians suffered nearly 300 casualties before finally subduing the defenders.
