Operation Juliana

Operation Juliana was a covert Dutch military operation executed in August 1946 by the House of Orange-Nassau, the Dutch Armed Forces and the Dutch Government. The goal was to receive the stock portfolio of the House of Orrange-Nassau located at a Berlin bank in the German Soviet Occupation Zone. The operation was successful.

Prior to World War II, the House of Orange banked with the Rotterdam Bank voor Handel en Scheepvaart. This was a bank owned by nazi financier Fritz Thyssen. The bank had an American subsidiary called Union Banking Corporation, operated by E. Roland Harriman and Prescott Sheldon Bush, members of Order 322.

Wilhelmina, Queen of the Netherlands had previously expressed support of fascist Adolf Hitler.
