The son of the new head of the Dutch armed forces was killed in Afghanistan with a fellow soldier when their vehicle hit a roadside bomb.
Lieutenant Dennis van Uhm, 23, was returning to his base after a large-scale reconnaissance mission in the southern province of Uruzgan yesterday when the blast occurred.
General Peter van Uhm was just made commander of the Dutch armed forces at a ceremony last Thursday.
