Pieter Johannes Hoets (April 24, 1921 – August 28, 2014) was a Dutch Engelandvaarder, an active Dutch resistance fighter against the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands in WW-II.
After a failed attempt to sail to England on June 19, 1940, he eventually left the country from Delfzijl on October 13, 1944. In Stockholm he signed up as a volunteer and was assigned to the Dutch Intelligence in Stockholm to interrogate new arrivals. After he arrived in England, he served in the Royal Netherlands East Indies Army.
After the war he immigrated to the US, where he studied US law at Yale University, joined The Coca-Cola Company where he became Chief Counsel for Coca Cola Europe, and later joined New York-based Reid & Priest, a law firm with 160 attorneys founded in 1935 with an office in Washington, D.C.. Hoets authored five historic books, including De Yale Connection. De jacht op de Marcos-miljarden en het Zwitsers bankgeheim ("The Yale Connection. Hunting the Marcos billions and Swiss banking secrecy.")
Hoets died on August 28, 2014, in Stamford, Connecticut, the United States.
