There was a Dutch web site in English about slave laborers taken from the
Netherlands. The web master has died, but the web pages (still in English)
have now been included in the otherwise-Dutch-language Documentatiegroep
40-45 web site at http://www.documentatiegroep40-45.nl/

To find the pages at the above web site, click on the "Dwangarbeid" arrow at
the upper left of the home page and choose any one of the sub-sections from
that.

-- A Letter to Susan [in English]

-- Geschiednis [in English, depsite the Dutch heading]

-- Compensatie [4 External Links in various languages, regarding
compensation for slave laborers]

-- Oproepen [Bulletin Board, in Dutch]

-- Literatur [a bad link that should point to
http://www.documentatiegroep40-45.nl/dwangarbeid/literatuur.php which has a
short intro in Dutch, followed by a bibiliography, followed by many links to
external sites, many of which are in English and cover slave labor issues
related to other places and peoples]
