position of General Spoor[edit]

General Simon Hendrik Spoor was Army Commander in the Netherlands East Indies. This is not to be confused with the position of Chief of Staff, which is a subordinate position to a commander of any sizeable military unit. The Chief of Staff functions as an exectutive officer. General Spoor, as I already wrote, was in overall command.

I'm refering to the already named <Generaal Spoor: Triomf en tragiek van een legercommandant, J.A. de Moor, Boom, Amsterdam, ISBN 978 90 8506 709 2>
