The Exception — Netherlands

Scene

A German officer is assigned to guard exiled Kaiser Wilhelm II at Huis Doorn in the occupied Netherlands.

History

Kaiser Wilhelm II lived in exile at Huis Doorn from 1920 until his death in June 1941. When Germany invaded the Netherlands in 1940, Hitler offered the Kaiser a return to Germany — he declined. He died just weeks before Germany invaded the Soviet Union.
