Regarding the mail on the timing in the different countries in May 1940, I think you made a mistake:

Germany: GMT+2 (summer time)
Belgium: GMT+1
France: GMT+1
UK: GMT+1 (summer time)
Netherlands: GMT+20 min

So if you take the zone of Belgium, France and the UK as the reference, Germany was 1 hour ahead and Holland 40 minutes behind in time.

Regards, Pieter
