The Quandary of Allied Logistics from D-Day to the Rhine
THE QUANDARY OF ALLIED LOGISTICS FROM D-DAY TO THE RHINE By Parker Andrew Roberson November, 2018 Director: Dr. Wade G. Dudley Program in American History, Department of History This thesis analyzes the Allied campaign in Europe from the D-Day landings to the crossing of the Rhine to argue that, had American and British forces given the port of Antwerp priority over Operation Market Garden, the war may have ended sooner. This study analyzes the logistical system and the strategic decisions of the Allied forces in order to explore the possibility of a shortened European campaign. Three overall ideas are covered: logistics and the broad-front strategy, the importance of ports to military campaigns, and the consequences of the decisions of the Allied commanders at Antwerp. The analysis of these points will enforce the theory that, had Antwerp been given priority, the war in Europe may have ended sooner.

The Semi-Enclosed Tidal Bay Eastern Scheldt in the Netherlands: Porpoise Heaven Or Porpoise Prison?
The semi-enclosed tidal bay Eastern Scheldt in the Netherlands: porpoise heaven or porpoise prison? Simone van Dam1, Liliane Solé1,2, Lonneke L. IJsseldijk3, Lineke Begeman3,4 & Mardik F. Leopold1 1 Wageningen Marine Research, Ankerpark 27, NL-1781 AG Den Helder, the Netherlands, e-mail: [email protected] 2 HZ University of Applied Sciences, Edisonweg 4, NL-4382 NW Vlissingen, the Netherlands 3 Department of Pathobiology, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Utrecht University, Yalelaan 1, NL-3584 CL Utrecht, the Netherlands 4 Department of Viroscience, Erasmus MC, Wytemaweg 80, NL-3015 CN Rotterdam, the Netherlands Abstract: Harbour porpoises (Phocoena phocoena), the smallest of cetaceans, need to consume quantities of prey that amount to ca. 10% of their own body mass per day. They mostly feed on small fish, with the main prey spe- cies differing geographically. The δ¹³C muscle signature of harbour porpoises sampled in the Eastern Scheldt, SW Netherlands, has indicated that animals tend to stay here for some time after they entered this semi-enclosed basin, and that they thus must feed on local prey. A relatively low primary production and low local fish biomass raises the question what there is for harbour porpoises to feed on in the Eastern Scheldt. This study reveals that there are no big differences between biological or stranding parameters of harbour porpoises found dead in the Eastern Scheldt compared with the adjacent North Sea (the “Voordelta”), but some differences in diet were found. Still, despite the low fish biomass in the Eastern Scheldt, no evidence of excessive harbour porpoise starvation was found. -

3D Modelling of the Shallow Subsurface of Zeeland, the Netherlands
Netherlands Journal of Geosciences — Geologie en Mijnbouw | 90 – 4 | 293 - 310 | 2011 3D modelling of the shallow subsurface of Zeeland, the Netherlands J. Stafleu1,*, D. Maljers1, J.L. Gunnink1, A. Menkovic1 & F.S. Busschers1 1 TNO – Geological Survey of the Netherlands. Princetonlaan 6, P.O. Box 80015, NL-3508 TA Utrecht, the Netherlands. * Corresponding author. Email: [email protected]. Manuscript received: March 2011, accepted: December 2011 Abstract The Geological Survey of the Netherlands aims at building a 3D geological voxel model of the upper 30 m of the subsurface of the Netherlands in order to provide a sound basis for subsurface related questions on, amongst others, groundwater extraction and management, land subsidence studies, aggregate resources and infrastructural issues. The Province of Zeeland (SW Netherlands, covering an area of approximately 70 by 75 km) was chosen as the starting point for this model due to an excellent dataset of 23,000 stratigraphically interpreted borehole descriptions. The modelling procedure involved a number of steps. The first step is a geological schematisation of the borehole descriptions into units that have uniform sediment characteristics, using lithostratigraphical, lithofacies and lithological criteria. During the second modelling step, 2D bounding surfaces are constructed. These surfaces represent the top and base of the lithostratigraphical units and are used to place each voxel (100 by 100 by 0.5 metres) in the model within the correct lithostratigraphical unit. The lithological units in the borehole descriptions are used to perform a final 3D stochastic interpolation of lithofacies, lithology (clay, sand, peat) and if applicable, sand grain-size class within each lithostratigraphical unit. -

Calgary Highlanders and the Walcheren Causeway Battle
Journal of Military and Strategic VOLUME 16, ISSUE 3 (2015) Studies The 2015 Ross Ellis Memorial Lecture A Perfectly Engineered Killing Ground: Calgary Highlanders and the Walcheren Causeway Battle Mark Zuehlke On October 31, 1944, 2nd Canadian Infantry Division’s 4th Brigade fought its way through to eastern approaches leading onto the Walcheren Causeway. This achievement set the stage for one of the bitterest battles that the Calgary Highlanders Regiment faced in World War II. It was a battle that was also the first major leadership test for Ross Ellis, who this annual lecture series honours, since his promotion to command of the regiment just twenty-one days earlier. Tonight’s lecture is intended to not only tell the story of the battle for Walcheren Causeway, but also through that story to examine an exemplary soldier’s leadership style and command ability. Much of this lecture draws on the research for the Walcheren Causeway section of my book on the Scheldt Estuary Campaign titled Terrible Victory. But I also want to acknowledge the contribution of a Walcheren Island Dutch historian Rene Hoebeke for his amazingly detailed Slagveld Sloedam (which means Battle of the Sloedam—the Dutch word for Causeway). Weighing in at 5.5 pounds and 928 pages this is the undisputed bible for the story of the Battle of the Walcheren Causeway, although the first half is dedicated to the 1940 battle between Dutch and German forces for its ©Centre of Military and Strategic Studies, 2015 ISSN : 1488-559X JOURNAL OF MILITARY AND STRATEGIC STUDIES control. Rene kindly gave me a copy of the book when I visited his home in 2004 and my Dutch historian colleague Johan van Doorn translated for me over the phone relevant portions that contributed greatly to understanding details of the Calgary Highlander battle that are not well known to us here in Canada. -
DNA Boek Noord-Beveland
DNA NOORD-BEVELAND Wij noemen Noord-Beveland een eindeloos eiland. Eindeloos in de letterlijke én figuurlijke betekenis. Het landschap biedt hier eindeloze vergezichten: je kan hier wandelend of fietsend eindeloos genieten. Het Noord-Bevelandse landschap kenmerkt zich door de rechte lijnen, verderop in dit DNA Boek ziet u een luchtfoto die dat duidelijk zichtbaar maakt. De Noord-Bevelanders noemen zichzelf ook wel Peelanders. Die geuzennaam is ontstaan dankzij de zware kleibodem die Noord-Beveland rijk is: juist op dié vruchtbare bodem gedijen suikerbieten (peeën) als nergens anders. Vandaar “Peeland”. Het Noord-Bevelandse land bracht ook prachtige bedrijven voort: onder andere ROOMPOT en Zeelandnet hebben hier hun roots liggen. De Noord-Bevelanders zelf volgen de rechtlijnigheid van het eiland, ze praten niet al te veel maar zij zeggen wel waar het op staat. Noord-Beveland wordt rondom omringd door drie wateren: aan de zeezijde ligt het brede Noordzeestrand, in het noorden de Oosterschelde en in het zuiden het Veerse Meer. Wij hebben hier zo’n vijftig kilometer eindeloze kustlijn, net zoveel als heel België. Dit DNA-boek wil de identiteit en het gevoel van Noord-Beveland verwoorden en verbeelden. Zonder opsmuk en zonder mooipraterij. Want dat past al helemaal niet bij de aard van de Noord-Bevelanders. Gewoon zoals het is, niet meer en niet minder! Dit DNA-boek wordt onze basis om samen met ondernemers, inwoners en organisaties de gemeente te gaan promoten vanuit onze ware identiteit; wat het werkelijk is, waar wij voor staan. Want onze identiteit vormt het uitgangspunt voor al onze promotie. Bewoners, ondernemers, ambtenaren en bestuurders leverden input voor dit DNA-boek.
