The German battle-plan incorporated large combined airborne and airlanding elements to land at the large Dutch AFB's at Valkenburg (South Holland) and Ypenburg and a smaller party at Ockenburg. These three AFB's were situated east, south and west of the Hague. Around 8,000 Germans were scheduled to land and march onto the Hague, snatching the Dutch Royal Family and beheading the Dutch military by capturing their command-centres.

The German air-operation against the Hague failed utterly. At Ypenburg AFB the German airborne battalion and follow-up air landing units initially gained some successes, but they were rapidly pushed into defence. Many were captured or killed. Some hundreds managed to sustain Dutch counter-attacks isolating themselves in the hamlet Overschie.

At Valkenburg the Germans first managed to seize the airfield running the Dutch defenders off. But after re-grouping the Dutch countered the German pocket and pushed the about 1,000 men strong German presence into a tight defence in the village Valkenburg itself. The Dutch wouldn't manage to force the surviving Germans into surrender though.

The landing at Ockenburg too resulted in initial German seizure of the AFB during which 25 Dutch defenders were KIA. But within short the German landing party - no more than around 400 men - were driven off of the pitch and pushed into the dune area between the AFB and the North Sea. In a daring attempt to break out during the following days, the German force (led by the commander of 22.ID, Lieutenant General Hans Graf von Sponeck himself) managed to outmanoeuvre quite substantial Dutch formations and eventually reach the German held pocket at the hamlet Overschie. At that position a combined remnant force of around 1,000 German invaders managed to hold out until being relieved by German ground-forces in the evening of May 14, 1940, after the Rotterdam Blitz.

The German offensive against the Hague constituted a considerable tactical loss to the Germans. The operational goal was not achieved, notwithstanding the fact that large Dutch formations had been tied around the German pockets for quite some time. Formations that thus could not be assigned other tasks.

The Dutch lost 29 men KIA during the AFB defensive battle and the following skirmishes. Another 41 men were lost in counter-offensive actions that saw the Dutch regain the airfield, but that failed to mop-up the German main force who on their turn managed to rebuff Dutch attempts to overrun their elevated dune positions. As such a total toll of 70 men KIA. Besides a material loss of a handful of modern airplanes that had been destroyed on the airfield during the siege.

The Germans lost 52 men in the battle for Ockenburg, including 8 men Luftwaffe personnel. An unknown number was taken prisoner and shipped to Scheveningen and from there on to Ymuiden, from where on 13 and 14 May 1940 ships managed to reach the United Kingdom.

The Luftwaffe lost around 250 airplanes in the area of the Hague, 500 men KIA and about 1,250 airbornes, air-landing troops and Luftwaffe personnel being evacuated as POW's to the United Kingdom on 14 May 1940. Those were lost to the German cause for the duration of the war. That event outraged Hermann Göring when he got word of it. He had several Dutch officers arrested and interrogated on the matter. In the end, on the scale of things, the German losses were obviously painful but not much more than that.

Willy Paul Franz Lages (October 5, 1901 – April 2, 1971) was the German Nazi commander of the Sicherheitsdienst in Amsterdam during the Second World War. From March 1941 he led the so-called Zentralstelle für jüdische Auswanderung (Central Bureau for the Jewish Emigration). As such he was responsible for the deportation of Dutch Jews to the concentration camps in Germany and occupied Poland.

Willy Paul Franz Lages

After the war, Willy Lages was sentenced in Holland to life imprisonment. He was incarcerated in Breda, along with Joseph Kotälla, Ferdinand aus der Fünten and Franz Fischer (the "Vier van Breda"/"The Breda Four" group). In 1966 Lages was released from prison for humanitarian reasons as he appeared to be seriously ill. The decision taken by the minister of justice, Ivo Samkalden, provoked a public outcry.

Lages received medical treatment in Germany after which he survived for another five years.

SARA BOAS was born 06 September 1909 in Harlingen, Friesland, Holland, and died 11 June 1943 in Sobibor death camp, Poland - Holocaust victim.  She married BENJAMIN PAIS 31 August 1933 in Harlingen, Friesland, Holland, son of ARON PAIS and REBECCA BLITZ. He was born 25 March 1907 in Zaandam, Zaanstad, Holland, and died 23 July 1943 in Sobibor death camp, Poland - Holocaust victim.

BENJAMIN PAIS:

Resided with family, 1939: Doniastraat 113, Zaandam, Holland.

Benjamin Pais married on August 31, 1933 with a woman from Harlingen, Sara Boas. The couple had their first child in Harlingen, a daughter Rebecca, who they named after her grandmother. On June 29, 1936, the family moved to Zaandam.

Before the war the family lived on the D. Doniastraat 113, then they moved to the Golofkinstraat 53. There two more children were born. The second child was named after an uncle, Gabriel. Their third child, Dina was three months old when the Germans occupied Holland. Benjamin Pais worked on a merchant ship, chandlers' with his brothers Levie and Abraham, who had the same occupation.

After the occupation the family went into hiding then in January 1942 the family was forced to leave for Amsterdam. What happened thereafter is unclear. The data on www.joodsmonument.nl shows that the three children had ended up at a camp in Vught. It is therefore assumed that the parents probably accompanied their children.

On Saturday, June 5, 1943 the Jewish Council in Vught made a proclamation that all children up to the age of 16 years old must leave the camp and be relocated to a special children's Camp, ondergebracht' 2. The orders were detailed as follows: "1 to 4 year olds, mothers must accompany their children, 2 to 16 year olds, children must be accompanied by a parent. Only if both parents were not employed in one of the camp industries could both join their children. Two transports carrying about three thousand people left the camp on a Sunday and the following Monday. The proclamation ended with eight days of mourning. David Koker schrijft wrote in his diary about the reading of the proclamation: "The people responded to it with a roar as I have never heard before. On 6 and 7 June 1943, a total of 1296 children and their mothers or both parents were deported from Vught.

On June 6, 1943, the first train left with the children under 4 years old and their mothers. The next day the older children left with their fathers or mothers. Vught wanted what they considered as unproductive persons gone.. But in the second train there were also productive persons.. The target was to be achieved. The first train (engraved 3 1750) where many of it`s passengers fell sick after a journey of ten hours, arrived at 4.30am on a Monday morning at Westerbork. Chroniqueur Mechanicus saw the train arrive, with hundreds of men and women with their children and infants. Among them were almost certainly Sara Pais-Boas and her daughter Dina. There were several sick children, who were temporarily deposited in the hospital. Benjamin Pais did not get a chance to see his relatives in Westerbork. Sara and the children had already been there a week earlier and on June 8, 1943, were sent to Sobibor.

On the night of Monday to Tuesday the second train left from Vught, with about 1,300 men, women and children, including Rebecca and Gabriel Pais.. They were "tired, exhausted, sick and dirty when they arrived at Westerborlk transit camp. Later  persons were forced into a cattle train, receiving punches and blows, destined for Sobibor to the East. Among them were at least Rebecca and Gabriel, including Sara and also the youngest child. "The train was full. Benjamin Pais had arrived and remained in Westerbork. Sara Pais-Boas (35) and her three children, Rebecca (8), Gabriel (5) and Dina (3), had already arrived in Sobibor. Sara and the other adults received stationery to write home about the children sweets. The same day, June 11, they were taken to the gas chambers and murdered.

Benjamin Pais (36) was on 20 July, 1943 placed on the same route to Sobibor. It was a very hot summer's day. Philip Mechanicus wrote,: "This is a terrible transportation, all transports are terrible, but the transport on the 20 July was particularly harsh.. This time in transportation were pregnant women in their seventh and eighth months of pregnancies, and children suffering from scarlet fever traveling for up to eight days in freight and cattle cars. Previous, they had spared these categories the misery of an uncertain journey. " Benjamin Pais was placed on the last train transport that went to the extermination camp, Sobibor, and was gassed on July 23, 1943.

Benjamin's entire family were murdered, including his parents, his brothers Gabriel, Adam and his brother Abraham.

Children's transports explained:

On the 6th and 7th of June 1943 two trains with Jewish children departed from the Vught camp. All children under 16 had to leave on this transport. Their parents were to accompany them. They were told that they would go to a special camp for children in the area. But the trains went to the Westerbork transit camp and from there on to Sobibor in Poland. The nearly 1300 Jewish children were murdered upon arrival. The rigorous decision to deport all children at once was quite exceptional. The reason this decision was made was due to the origin of the camp. The Vught concentration camp was the only SS-Concentration camp outside Nazi Germany in occupied territory. It had a strict and brutal concentration camp regime. Men, women and children were held in separate barracks. There was a lack of food, clean drinking water and hygiene. The resulting chaos was difficult to handle, both for the Jewish prisoners as for the SS in charge. The children were the most vulnerable. They suffered from diseases and, in the eyes of the SS, they were a nuisance. Most likely this was the reason for their sudden deportation.

Parents of Benjamin Pais were ARON PAIS born 05 March 1866 in Harlingen, Friesland, Holland, and died 04 June 1943 in Sobibor death camp, Poland - Holocaust victim.  He married REBECCA BLITZ 17 June 1897 in Harlingen, Friesland, Holland.  She was born 14 July 1873 in Amsterdam, Holland, and died 04 June 1943 in Sobibor death camp, Poland - Holocaust victim.

Twice she had the chance to escape: the first time was when Leny was taken to the Sicherheitsdienst in Amsterdam and a German, not knowing she was Jewish, told her she could leave; the second time was in the tram on her way to the central station, when a tram driver who knew her said he was willing to hide her in a truck next to him. But she lacked the courage. On 3 September 1944, Leny was deported to Auschwitz-Birkenau via Westerbork. She was on the same transport as Anne Frank.
