https://www.tracesofwar.nl/sights/4277/Monument-Halifax-JB892.htm When the four-engined English bomber Halifax B II (JB 892 KN-E, part of the 77th Squadron) returned from a bombing raid on the industrial area in Bochum (part of an air fleet of 446 bombers), it crashed at this location at 2:30 am on May 14, 1943, after being shot down by a German night fighter over the border area near Emmen. In memory of the 7 deceased crew members buried in the General Cemetery in Sleen and whose names are mentioned on this monument, a group of school friends from Zweeloo and Oosterhesselen erected this monument in 1945 from the wreckage they found during the war. When it looked neglected after 30 years, the remains were encapsulated in concrete in 1975 and then handed over to the municipality of Sleen for sustainable maintenance. On April 28, 1988, this monument was taken over by group 7 of the Christian primary school “De Fontein” in Sleen on the initiative of the “Februari ’41 Foundation”. ################################################# During the war, 4 boys rode bicycles, who lived in Zweeloo and Oosterhesselen, went to school together, the HBS in Coevorden. They were Henk van der Velde, his brother Beerend van der Velde, Riekus Gelling and Co van Dixhoorn, son of the forester. During the discussions, a plan was made to recover the remains of the bomber that crashed on May 14, 1943. And so it happened. Memorial Summer 1945 The German soldiers had taken most of it with them, but a lot of rubble was left behind in the young, confusing forest. They went into the forest every Saturday and "combed through it", sometimes on their hands and knees. They hid everything they found in a shed belonging to the state forestry administration. Immediately after the war, around May or June 1945, the boys were of the opinion that all the parts of the plane should be made into a memorial in memory of the seven fallen crew members. Hennie Schuiling had joined in the meantime; he had gone into hiding during the war. They erected the memorial on the spot where the plane had burned fiercely. Source: B. van der Velde

History The name Emmelkamp is still commonly used in the colloquial dialect today. The High German name Emlichheim is derived from the original Low German forms Emminchem or Emmenheim. Since the time of the Thirty Years' War, High German has been used for documents in the County of Bentheim. Officially, the name was thus translated from the previously used Low German into High German as Emlichheim. Due to the close cultural and economic ties with the Netherlands, Dutch was the common language of communication, church service, and writing, particularly in the Lower County, from the 16th century onward. Until the 1820s, Dutch was used as the primary language in the county's schools. The colloquial language was the local Low German dialect, which was strongly influenced by the Dutch written language.
