title: [Three tragic destinies of surgeon-dentists: Bernard Holstein, Danielle Casanova and Dr. Rene Maheu during World War II]].
abstract: Three tragic and anonymous fates. Three dental surgeons who came under the yoke of the Nazis. A Jew. a communist and a Resistance fighter. All three were victims of Hitler's regime, like so many others. The Jewish man died in a gas chamber. The communist woman died of typhus in Auschwitz concentration camp. The Resistance fighter emerged from concentration camp imprisonment, disabled because of his many scars. These three striking lives are symbols that must strengthen our duty to remember, especially in this year of the 60th anniversary of the liberation of the camps and the end of the war.
