Together with Charles Mulder, René Mortiaux, Paul Van den Broeck and Victor Verschueren, Henri Willems earned Belgium’s first medal at the Winter Olympics. The sled placed third in all four runs, earning an overall third place, well behind the first and second teams, but 20 seconds ahead of France in 4th. Outside of this feat, very little is known about Willems.
