Description
Marinus was born in the Netherlands, and in 1940 turned down a request to become a leader of the youth association of the Nazi party. He was sent to do forced labour at the Krupp weapons factory, and later to a concentration camp at Amersfoort, before being sent back to Germany to work in ammunition plants. He was liberated by Polish troops in March 1945
