All the fallen resistance people in Limburg

Hendricus Hubertus Tobben (Harry)

Het Grote Gebod – L.O.

Harry Tobben was a former soldier and after his demobilization by the Germans in 1940 member of the mine police. Was involved, among other things, in acts of sabotage in the Oranje-Nassau Mine I (O.N. I) in Heerlen, which was uncovered by the SiPo. In June 1942, on the advice of police friends, he went into hiding in Baexem, but just continued to help fugitives.
From the speech by Dr. Fred Cammaert at the unveiling of the memorial plaque at the Peace Carillon): Under the inspiring leadership of Charles Bongaerts, he and other former military personnel devoted themselves to all manner of resistance activities, ranging from aiding Jews, Allied airmen, and those in hiding (the so called divers), to gathering weapons and intelligence information, to producing and distributing illegal magazines and acts of sabotage. As a result of infiltrating by provocateurs in German service (Englandspiel), he was arrested on August 6, 1943. [1]
