Seventy-five years after the war ended, our latest story comes just ahead of VE Day on May 8 marking the day the Nazis surrendered, as well as the anniversary of the Mauthausen camps' liberation in May 1945. The first part of the series, published on January 14, was devoted to survivors' personal stories. On April 14, we looked at Holocaust remembrance in the world. Now, we turn to a less frequently discussed aspect: the babies born in the death camps. + Born in a concentration camp: the Holocaust's youngest survivors History-Nazism-Holocaust,SPECIAL REPORT PARIS Holocaust survivor Florence Schulmann has always worried that if she went into schools to recount her experience, it would sound almost fantastical: "I'd be too scared that they wouldn't believe me." AFP speaks to three Holocaust survivors who share the same, seldom discussed experience: they were born in Nazi concentration camps. 1,800 words by Blaise Gauquelin.
