    It is located in a Wooded area that is called Jonkers Bosch.
    And that is the name also given to the Cemetery.
    He was killed in the Allied advance into the Netherlands in September 1944.
    The Germans had overtaken the Netherlands on the 10th May of 1940 Blitzkrieg and remained in their hands until 1944.
