she was committed to the care of the Nazis' sadistic "quacks" in the Ravensbrück concentration camp Experimental Station. The Nazis injected typhus into her blood to make serum. In the typhus block they did not bother to feed prisoners. Here is a short abstract about her from "Entre les mailles du filet" by Bernadette Jessie Rossion (Copyright 2003 Editions Clepsydre) Le lendemain, j’ai vu sortir du Revier des malades habillées qu’on allait "trier". Je me tenais près d’un Block et j’assistai à la sinistre opération car j’avais reconnu dans ce groupe Juliette, une compagne de prison, très amicale, que je n’avais plus vue depuis un an. J’avais très envie de lui faire signe mais je ne pouvais pas me faire remarquer et l’heure était grave. Lorsqu’on appela son numéro, je sentis qu’elle faisait des efforts inouïs pour se tenir debout et marcher droit. Angoissée, je retins mon souffle en la voyant s’avancer. À un moment, je sentis qu’elle chancelait, mais elle se reprit et alla spontanément se ranger du côté des Stucken valides. Il n’y eut aucune contradiction et, déjà, on appelait le numéro suivant. Claire Didisheim a survécu : "Juliette" était son nom de guerre. (The next day, I saw patients coming out of the sickbay who were going to be "sorted". I was standing near a Block and watched the sinister operation because among this group I recognised Juliette, a companion from prison, very friendly, whom I had not seen for a year. I wanted to wave to her but I couldn't make myself obvious and the moment was serious. When her number was called, I felt that she was making an incredible effort to stand up and walk straight. Anxious, I held my breath when I saw her walk forward. At one point I felt that she was tottering, but she recovered and went spontaneously to stand among the able-bodied. There was no contradicting order and the next number was already being called. Claire Didisheim survived: “Juliette” was her nom de guerre.) The Swedish Red Cross, accompanying Allied liberation troops, found and saved her shortly before the end of the war, together with 7,500 prisoners who were brought to Switzerland and Sweden. René Didisheim, was conferred hereditary nobility and created 1st Baron Didisheim (hereditary by male primogeniture) on 11 December 1984, for his services rendered to Belgium.
