Default Dutch landing in Indonesia film

Hi Guys, I found this film on youtube:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4ekc...eature=related

From 0:41 to 1:41 it shows Dutch marines landing in either Bali or Medan, while there are CMPs shown I have another interest in this; if someone could translate to English that would be very nice as I don't speak Dutch.

Of great interest to me is HMLST 3010, which was part of a top secret operation by Combined Operations to restore the Dutch. More can be read on this, here:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/print/ww2people...a4607435.shtml

Part of the flotilla was HMLST 3020 and HMLST 3502, my father was in Combined Ops SE Asia Div. on HMLST 3020. I know he went into Medan, and ferried Dutch marines from the converted liner Nuie Amsterdam to the port.
Cheers,
Dave
