Biography
Tjapko Antoon van Bergen (March 26, 1903 in Heiligerlee, Groningen – February 2, 1944 in Krakolye, Leningrad, Russia) was a Dutch rower. He competed at the 1928 Summer Olympics in the Men's Coxed Pairs with Cornelis Dusseldorp; their boat capsized in the first round and they did not finish.
Van Bergen became a member of the National Socialist Movement in the Netherlands (NSB), the fascist and later national-socialist organization that collaborated with the German occupier during World War II. He joined the SS and attained the rank of Rottenführer; he died near Narva, in Estonia, on the Eastern Front.
