Cornelis Waardenburg DFC
Royal Air Force 320 (Dutch) Sqd.

(d.30th Aug 1944)
In May 1940, Cornelis Waardenburg fought within the Dutch Army, on the Grebbeberg, the most fierce part of the front in Holland. He was a Reserve-Second Lieutenant then. He escaped to be a prisoner of war and flew to England. He was with the 139 Squadron and received a DFC. I don't know the circumstances why. Have you any information about him for me? He was a mate of my father during the fights on the Dutch front. Thank you in advance.
