Thanks for that wealth of information....but now I need to know which industries if any were being used in Holland and Belgium.....economically strong or no? I'm sure the ports (Antwerp) were valuable but anything else here? Perhaps only strategic value?

Thunder,
AFAIK, Philipps and Fokker in the Netherlands were working for german war-production. Some chemical plants (I forgot the names) were also exploited.
