mispunt Posted September 15, 2010 Posted September 15, 2010 I am researching a book on the resistance in the Netherlands during the Second World War. My mother was a resistance fighter and I have a photo of her with an armband that is supposed to identify her as having been in the underground. Is there any other documentation/memorabilia/medals in relation to underground members? I'd also like to know if anyone has seen medals or insignia for the NSB, the Dutch National Socialist movement during WWII. Many thanks.

Herr General Posted September 16, 2010 Posted September 16, 2010 Pm me the details of your mother and I may be able to help. I have a lot of contacts in the former Dutch resistance.

RCACS 204 Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 Hi My father-in-law was also in the Dutch Underground. Unfortunately he did not talk of it much. I have a plaque that was used to raise funds for the underground. It become the symbol of the dutch underground and was hung proudly in their homes. The orange lion is representative of the Dutch royal family IK WAAK= I stand GEBROKEN VLEUGELS= broken wings onstenfelijke roems= immortal fame
