Just to note there was a progressive movement in Holland in the 1960s, like in most countries at the time. This progressiveness also found it's way in language and spelling, hence they spelled Uzi as Oezi.

Fortunately most of that progressive language crap disappeared again, with a few exceptions.

The Dutch army ordered the Uzi in 1961, by 1963 already, many were in a sorry state and in need of refurbishment. The state arsenal AI was asked to come up with a game plan and a cost calculation, 100 damaged Uzi's were selected for a test refurbishment run.
