The Dutch Navy played a role both in the defence of the Netherlands against the German Invasion on the 10th of May 1940, and against the Japanese assaults in the Pacific from 1942 onwards. In this video I look at the Dutch Navy in the Second World War, from the battles on the Maasbruggen in Rotterdam with the marines, to those that made it to join the Royal Navy to take part in the evacuation at Dunkirk and the landings at D-Day, to the battles of the ABDA fleet against the Japanese at the Java Sea.
