MaritimeQuest is very proud to present this collection of never before published photos. The photos were taken by then Midshipman Ad Hoppener, Royal Netherlands Navy during his service in HNLMS Jacob van Heemskerck and HNLMS Van Kinsbergen during World War II. The scans were made from the original negatives by Jaap de Moor, R.N.N. who also served as a pilot in the Royal Netherlands Navy during the Cold War. We greatly appreciate Jaap's efforts in scanning and cataloging the collection. Also for choosing MaritimeQuest to be the first to publish the collection. |
