Willem Pieter Landzaat (Leiden, 7 April 1886 - Rhenen, 13 May 1940) was a Dutch militairy who died during the Battle of the Grebbeberg.
In May 1940 Major Landzaat was commander of the 1st Batallion, 8th Regiment Infantry (I-8 R.I.). On 13 May, his command post, located in a pavilion where a restaurant was located, south of "Ouwehands Dierenpark", was surrounded and attacked. Landzaat said he would defend the Grebbeberg to the last man and last bullet. Earlier, on May 12, he had given the command stand firm behind the rubble to his troops.
He organized the defense of his own command post and operated the machine gun. When the last ammunition was gone, he thanked his troops for their commitment with the words You have fought like heroes, thank you and gave them permission to leave the post. He himself stayed behind until the last moment to preserve. After the battle, his remains were recovered from the ruined and burnt pavilion and buried in the Military War Cemetery Grebbeberg.
On 9 May 1946, Landzaat was posthumously awarded the Military William Order, the highest Dutch military honor.
