Fact template

I've added ^{[citation needed]} to the sentence "most of the initial resistance came from Social Democrats, Catholics and Communists", because my (Dutch) history teacher taught me that the initial resistance came from communists and protestants, social democrats and catholics coming into resistance only much later. I unfortunately have no written source to back this. Qwertyus 15:08, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Minor edit made, "Discovery by the Germans of involvement in the resistance often meant an immediate death sentence." Added "often", as it did not always result in death. There were many arrested resistance men and women who survived the war, though quite often they were killed or sent to concentration camps. The book "To Save a Life" by Ellen Land-Weber (ISBN 0-252-02515-6) sourced. 24.137.105.8 17:53, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

English game

Other articles refer to the "English Game", whereby the German intelligence penetrated and compromised Dutch Resistance. Any info? Folks at 137 08:16, 28 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Translation of 'onderduikers'

The word 'onderduikers' has been literally translated to 'under-divers' and then in the organisation section not translated at all. I have changed all 3 to "people in hiding". (I'm a Dutch speaker so I can confirm that's the best translation possible - there's no single English word to describe onderduikers) Oplossing is duidelijk 20:23, 16 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
