Among the deaths were also 111 Puttenaren, men from the village Putten in the Netherlands, who got deported during the Putten raid because the action was undertaken as a reprisal for a Dutch resistance attack on a vehicle carrying personnel from the Wehrmacht. It was one of the worst raids in occupied Netherlands during the Second World War.<ref>The camp is listed as No. 796 Ladelund in the [http://bundesrecht.juris.de/begdv_6/anlage_6.html official German list] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090423004151/http://bundesrecht.juris.de/begdv_6/anlage_6.html |date=2009-04-23 }} {{in lang|de}}</ref> Ladelund was a subcamp to the Neuengamme concentration camp.
