Exposed to World War II as a 17 year old boy in Eindhoven

Henk Kuiten recollects the stories of his father Marinus Kuiten (1923) who was detained in the Scheveningen gevangenis during World War II, and escaped from forced labor in Germany. Shortly after the liberation of Eindhoven, he joined the Brits in Operation Market Garden and ended up in the battles of the Ardennes Offensive. What shaped him personally, what made him decide to take the risks of escaping from forced labor, to wander through occupied territory, to hide in Eindhoven, and to join the fighting army voluntarily?    Jean-Paul Linnartz hosted Henk Kuiten at Radio 4 Brainport
