Prisoner Number 100139: Memories of a concentration camp teenage inmate

By René Jadoul and Jadoul

On 29th July 1944, a few new members of the French Resistance improvise an attack on a German truck in the town centre of Clermont-en-Argonne, France. They fatally wound a non-commissioned Gestapo officer. As a result, a hundred and twelve men are rounded up in the town on the following day. A hundred of them will be deported to Germany and Austria, and only twenty-eight will come back from those camps. Amongst them are Fernand Jadoul and his two older sons: twenty-year-old Andr and seventeen-year-old Ren . They will be sent from Ecrouves, near Toul, via the Struthof camp in France, to the Dachau subcamp Ottobrunn in Germany. Eager to tell his story while he was one of the only two survivors still alive, Ren Jadoul wanted to give his version of events, so that we do not forget one of the little stories that shaped broader French history.
