Engelandvaarder Hummeling

Who has information about a certain Engelandvaarder Bob (or Robbert, Robert, Rob) Hummeling? According to two sources, Mr Hummeling left The Hague for England in February 1944, together with Hugo Wilmar.

Sources

Jan Woldijk told us in the interview that he helped Hugo Wilmar and a traveling companion on their way to Paris in February 1944. When asked, Mr. Woldijk mentions the name Bob Hummeling. Hugo Wilmar also mentions the name Bob Hummeling in his letter of 17 July 1945 from New York. In that letter he describes the fate of his traveling companion after the harsh journey from occupied territory to England:

(…) Huppelding (real name: Hummeling) followed me faithfully, although he came a little later. (He) sits at a small table in the mess hall at Camp Lejeune, collecting money from the officers who come to dinner. He also has to watch them closely to make sure they don't break, because a plate costs 15 cents and a mug costs a double. Now (he is as) fat as a toad (it looks like he has a toothache on both sides) so Bob is also doing his duty (...)

Detail of Hugo Wilmar's letter of 17 July 1945, in which he writes about Hummeling.

Hummeling's Timeline

Based on the two sources, it seems that Bob Hummeling stayed in the company of Hugo Wilmar during the period from February 1944 to (at least) April or May 1945. Somewhere between the departure from The Hague, the two temporarily lost touch.

After Hugo left for Washington in February 1945, the roads separated between Hummeling and Wilmar

The stranger Engelandvaarder

The name Hummeling (or corruptions thereof) does not appear in the list with Engelandvaarders on Wikipedia. He is also unknown to the archives of the Museums Engelandvaarders. A cursory search in the archives of the NIOD and the NIMH have yielded no trace either.

Questions

We are very curious about the story of Bob Hummeling, and hope to learn more about the escape from occupied territory in 1944 and the training at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, America in early 1945.
