Nearly half a century ago, I witnessed Walter Baade and Jan Oort dreaming of a joint enterprise which would lift observational astronomy in Europe from the level of their modest national efforts to that of the leading observatories in the United States. I have been privileged to see, and to have been able to contribute to, the realization of that dream. This half century has left a wealth of recollections and sentiments from which it is difficult to select for this occasion.
