1/n Eliane Kahen (aka Caen Kan) was born on November 28, 1942, in Grenoble, where she lived with her parents Pierre and Renée when the #SecondWorldWar broke out. She was deported to Auschwitz by convoy 70 on March 27, 1944.
She would be gassed as soon as she arrived.

2/n Eliane had been accompanied by her mother Renée, her two brothers François (*1932), and Henri Pierre (* 1933), and her father Pierre.
None survived.
A whole family wiped out just like that.

3/n Five men, Nicolas Ressly, Stanislas Brocky, Serge Gribe, Henri Sendrowicz, and Jean Moch-Lemmel managed to jump off the train during the journey.
Serge Gribe later wrote:
I am the only one alive, because I managed to jump off the train in Lorraine, to be picked up by a

4/n railway worker who knew that a train of deportees was going to pass and that perhaps he could do something. Hearing shots fired from the last car occupied by German soldiers, he realized that there was an escape.
He found me, took me in and allowed me to survive.

5/n Since that day, 2 months before the landing of June 6, 1944, I have tried to make it public that nothing has been done, nothing has been said except de Gaulle: "the fate of the Jews is not a priority" Nothing was done: derailment of the train, bombing of the railway tracks...

6/6 THE priority, what was it? That the communist Russians do not arrive in Berlin first.
Silence of the Vatican, silence of the Red Cross, at the Nuremberg trial, only the German Nazis were condemned, they were indeed the executors.
