Nederlands May 1940 website.

Just found this site.
Very interesting site on a overlooked campaign.
Updated a few days ago, looks a good website.

Been reading up on the fighting in Holland in the ATB book, Blitzkrieg In The West.
Real "boys own stuff", German paras, armoured trains, gun-boats , flying boats etc etc...
A campaign I'd never looked into before, fascinating.

That is a brilliant website Owen and some of the Bios of the leading personalities are interesting.

Yes, that's something that came across when I was reading it over Christmas. It was amazing how many places we know from operations in 1944-45 were heavily fought over in May 1940 too.
