Jan Hendrik Hoiting

My grandfather Jan Hendrik Hoiting was an military officer in the Dutch East Indies prior to and during WW2. He now rests in the Dutch War Cemetery Leuwigajah. Before death he was a POW in Java, when transferred he survived the sinking of the Junyo Maru in September 1944 and I believe he was then put to work at the Pakan Baroe railway in Sumatra. My mother believed that her father died at Pakan Baroe and that when the war ended his body was taken to Singapore. According to information of the Oorlogsgravenstichting my grandfather survived the war and was taken to Singapore for recuperation. There he died of congestive cardiac failure. He was buried in Singapore and in 1949 his body was transferred to Java and reburied in the Dutch war cemetery Leuwigajah in Cimahi. Sluiten
