750 middle school students from Chartres gathered to listen to the testimony of Samuel Pintel, son of deportees and hidden child

They were forty-four. Forty-four Jewish children, all gathered in the sadly famous house of Izieu (Ain), “a summer camp that was not really one”. All were arrested during a roundup ordered by Klaus Barbie on April 6, 1944. Samuel Pintel could have been the 45th, but “fate” decided otherwise.
