Dutch War Graves Leuchars

Leuchars Cemetery contains three Dutch war graves from World War II. Two of the victims, Anton Marie ten Herkel (right) and Willem Hijkoop (left), were killed instantly when their Lockheed Hudson went down in the grounds of Gilmerton House in 1941. The third grave is of C.A.F. van Otterloo.

The cemetery contained more graves, but these were transferred to the Dutch war cemetery Mill Hill.
