Description
Two brothers resisted the Nazi regime with all their might. Jean's daring attempts to reach England to serve the exiled Dutch government led to his arrest in 1940. From inside, he helped others survive the camps. Denis worked tirelessly coordinating resistance to the Nazi occupation and producing underground newspapers. He evaded capture until 1944. These are my Dutch Uncles - struck down in their prime. Their loss was deeply felt but seldom spoken of, and by the time I started asking questions, nearly everyone who knew them was dead. But we were able to find out about Jean and Denis through letters, memoirs, journals, and official documents. These remarkable men are a tiny fraction of the human potential lost in World War II. I wish I could have met them - now at least we know something of them.
