but ca 22.000 dutchmen were part of the Waffen SS, the Wehrmacht or NSKK during the war...

but you are right. In the Legion or at least in the 4. SS-Freiwilligen-Panzergrenadier-Brigade „Nederland" there were just about 5000 to 7000 men

[Duuring]

I think the number estimated between 20.000 to 25.000 all together. Including certain... less-then-useful units. Most Dutch Waffen-SS'ers joined out of anti-communism. Or boredom. I've read some newspapers from the war. These people really were bombarded with propaganda and joining up didn't seem too bad. A well-paid job, too. But yeah, they made their choice, for whatever reason. Saying that they all were true Nazi's is as stupid as saying that they all weren't.

A little word of advice guys - When you visit the Netherlands, it's best to not mention all those Dutchmen that joined the Nazi's. It's a bit of a ....sensitive subject. There are plenty of people who know why those men made their choices, but for everyone one of those, you got 10 right-wingers saying they only fight to fight communism and that the Nazi's weren't all that bad and a hundred ignorant Dutchies saying 'THEY ALL BE NAZI JEWKILLING TRAITOR SCUM'.

Like I said...Sensitive subject.

But you should just join us in 2016.  We wil take no photos of you.

It's not about photos, Munk. My family went trough quite a little bit of shit at the hands of the Axis and it just doesn't feel right to dress in their uniforms.

A Yank uniform is fine though.

I have a thing for 'the simple man' of every period. Not the elite guard shit. So don't worry.
Canadians sounds alright. My grandmothers family had a Canadian soldier quartered in their house a while. His name was Anthony.

DAMNED NOW I'M GOING TO DO YET ANOTHER IMPRESSION! I HAVEN'T GOT THE MONEYS DAMNED!

Well I think the whole liberation of Netherlands....  well you know . I would not credit the Canadian nor anybody

There weren't any Yanks so it isn't important? IS THAT WHAT YOU ARE SAYING? MY COUNTRY IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU?
