Dutch Agents 1940 – 1945 1

Dutch agents 1940 – 1945By Frans Kluiters

(New Version, September 2008)1

This is a comprehensive list of secret agents who infiltrated into the Netherlands on behalf ofthe Allied intelligence and action services during the period 1940 – 1945.2 It results from myresearch over the past twenty years, and was originally intended to help me find my way in thewelter of names, code names and aliases mentioned in the literature on Second World Warintelligence. The list is a compilation of material from old and new open sources and archives.

Some forty years ago researcher G.P. van der Stroom made a similar list on the basis of secondarysources, which was used by L. de Jong for his official history of the Netherlands during the SecondWorld War. Van der Stroom’s list was incomplete and contained some errors, but, having much of thesame source material at my disposal, I started to compile my own list.

In the 1990’s part of the archives of the Special Operations Executive (SOE) became available forresearch. However, these original documents often only contained the code names or aliases of theiraction agents, which makes it difficult to comprehend the meaning of these papers. That is why I havelisted all the various code names and aliases of the agents, I have come across.A problem is that MI6 archives are closed to researchers. This means that information on intelligenceagents can only be found in secondary sources and some Dutch archives. Therefore names and detailsof agents who were active in the Netherlands, but do not figure in these sources or in the availablearchives, may also be lacking in my list.3

There is a reason for assuming this, as major Desmond Morton, Winston Churchill’s personalassistant, wrote to Churchill in October 1941:

‘Various personal dislikes and intrigues figure in the story of which the essential point is whetherthe Dutch Secret Service has a right to demand particulars of British Secret Agents working inHolland. […] At first glance it would seem to me that neither the Dutch nor any other alliednations should claim a right to know all our Secret Agents in their countries even if in return theygive us the names of the agents working for them. There will obviously be occasions when mutualdisclosures are necessary to avoid confusion, but friendly cooperation between the Chiefs of theSecret Services concerned should meet all requirements.’ 4

Some agents were called ‘Engelandvaarders’, fleeing the Netherlands by sea, land or air, andsucceeding in reaching Great Britain. Some of them were recruited straight away after being

1 Dates are given in accordance with NEN-ISO specification 8601 (2005).2 Strictly speaking, one agent, Kiek, does not belong here, because he infiltrated into France instead of theNetherlands. He has been listed solely because of his Dutch nationality. Likewise, some Dutch agents whoinfiltrated on behalf of OSS into Austria, have been recorded.3 During a discussion with the AIVD, the Dutch intelligence and security service, it became clear that – referringto a recently introduced bill – they believe that the identity of former Dutch intelligence agents should not berevealed. It is of course a noble aspiration for a service to assure their agents and informers eternal anonimity,but the protection of intelligence agents who were active long before the AIVD came into existence seems aholier-than-thou attitude. These agents worked for the Centrale Inlichtingendienst and their successor, BureauInlichtingen, and certainly not for any post-war security service (after the war Gerbrands and Pot for exampleworked for the BVD, the then Dutch security service, but no longer as agents). Furthermore, many of theseagents were portrayed – with names, aliases and other personal details – by L. de Jong in his history of theNetherlands during the Second World War, and in numerous other publications.4 TNA PREM, 3/221/13B.

interrogated at the Royal Victoria Patriotic School (later called the London Reception Centre) and theDutch security service.5

Two British services were active in recruiting agents: MI6 (also known as the Secret IntelligenceService or SIS) and SOE, the Special Operations Executive. MI6 wanted agents for collectinginformation about the military situation on the continent. SOE wanted agents for sabotaging theGerman war machine. In order to effect this the two services collaborated with various successiveDutch secret services. Since the Dutch influence on policy, planning and carrying out of operationswas minimal, and because these agents were only loosely affiliated to the Dutch services, especially inthe years 1940-1942, I have simply called them MI6 or SOE agents.Officially, the MI6 agents were first employed by the Centrale Inlichtingendienst (CID), and the non-governmental – strictly speaking even illegal – ‘Contact Holland’, then the Bureau VoorbereidingTerugkeer/Bureau Militaire Voorbereiding Terugkeer, and lastly the Bureau Inlichtingen (BI).6 SOEcame to work with the CID too, then with the Bureau Militaire Voorbereiding Terugkeer, but after thethe Englandspiel debacle, the Bureau Bijzondere Opdrachten (BBO) took over.

It was most fortunate that in May 2008 I was contacted by aviation historian Huub van Sabben, whooffered to correct and amplify my list. As a result of his meticulous research into parachute dropsabove Holland, this list has gained in accuracy.7 Also my checking of a score of files in the NationalArchives in The Hague contributed to that result. Some questions have now been answered and,although some others remain, I think this list now forms a reliable source for historians.

However, this is still an ongoing research project, so make sure that you use the latest version of mylist. I hope it may contribute to your own research. On the other hand, I would be grateful for anycomments on and/or additions to this list.8

5 If known, I have mentioned the location of these interrogation reports, along with other reports, in the archives.Some other enthusiastic researcher will have to check the RVPS interrogation reports in TNA WO 208/3663 –WO 208/3748 for reports relating to Dutchmen (unfortunately, this type of research is not financially supportedby official Dutch historical institutions).6 The tasks and functions of these organizations (except for ‘Contact Holland’) are specified in my book DeNederlandse inlichtingen- en veiligheidsdiensten.7 Most of Van Sabben’s data come from RAF archives in TNA.8 The NISA webmaster will be pleased to pass on your comments, corrections or additions to me (please specifyyour sources). www.nisa-intelligence.nl.
