I believe that the above soldier was my uncle Nico Wendels as I can remember that he had received a decoration after the war which my Dad told me about.Nico lived in Hengelo with his parents and three brothers

You refer to the soldier Wendels, mentioned in the story of Gerrit Visser?
He was rewarded with the " Bronzen Kruis " in 1946 by Prince Bernhard.

Soldier ( or rather Hussar ) Nico Wendels belonged to the PAG ( anti - armour ) eskadron of the 4th regiment Hussars.
He was one of the last brave defenders of Rhenen in the afternoon of may 13th ( in the neighbourhood of the VIADUCT).
