The best tool is just a German map :-) I also have a special converter. Please check your e-mail box.

Trouble is there would be several place huge didtances apart with the same reference! But the date is the key to which one!

John,

You want the wonderful tools available at SES' site here:

http://www.gyges.dk/reporting_grids.htm

First three links (map, LUMA tool, LUMA guide) below "The Jägergradnetz" are what you want in this case.

Using the above, I make:

52233 = 1.5km S of the centre of Velp
52238 = Between Lingewaard and Arnhem
52291 = A few km S of Nijmegen
52296 = About 3km WNW of KranenBurg, near the road to Nijmegen
62356 = About halfway between Sonsbeck and Weeze
