The fallen resistance people in Limburg
Willy Dols was a teacher of Dutch and a gifted linguist, who made an accurate study of the Sittard diphthong [5]. He spent part of the school vacations in 1944 with his sister in Arnhem [1] and after the evacuation of that city ended up in Putten, where he became a victim of the German raid. [2]
He was taken to Germany for forced labor, where he died in the Zivilarbeiterlager (forced labor camp) called Husum-Schwesing,[3] which existed for only three months and from where work was done on the never completed so-called Friesenwall.
His doctoral thesis was published posthumously after the war. [5]
