LE MORCEAU DE CHOCOLAT.

Admirable ! Emouvant !
On sent bien le récit authentique ...
(Je viens de retrouver ce complément d'histoire sur FaceBook).
Francine Christophe was born in Paris on August 18, 1933. Francine was Jewish, the daughter of French-Jewish parents. In 1940, France was invaded by the Nazis.
Soon after the invasion, several antisemitic laws were passed. In 1942, it became much worse. On March 27, the first deportation to Auschwitz left from Paris. On June 1 of that year, Jews were required to wear the infamous "Jewish Star" on all of their outer clothing.
Francine and her mother were arrested in a roundup in 1942, along with hundreds of other Jewish civilians. She was deported to Drancy transit camp. Due to her mother's status, they were held as exchange prisoners (prisoners that the Germans hoped to exchange for prisoners of war) and were not deported to Auschwitz. They were interred in Drancy until it became clear that the Nazis were losing the war. In Spring or early Summer of 1944, they were deported to the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp.
As exchange prisoners, the two were placed in a separate area of the camp called the "Sternlager" or star camp. The sternlager had better conditions than the regular camp, but it was by no means a vacation. There was no sanitation, heating, or adequate food. The prisoners were allowed to take one bag each. Francine's mother brought along a piece of chocolate to save for when Francine would need more strength.
That fall, a pregnant woman fell very sick and was about to give birth to her child. Francine gave the weak woman her beloved piece of chocolate. The woman and her baby, although both weak and feeble, survived. The Winter of 1944-1945 was particularly harsh in the Bergen-Belsen camp. Francine and her mother both fell ill due to the typhus epidemic that has broken out in the camp, but ultimately survived until the camp's liberation on April 15, 1945.
Francine and her mother returned to France after the war. Francine grew up and was married and became a mother. She is still alive today. Decades after the war, a young woman came up to her at a conference. She gave her a piece of chocolate and said "I was the baby. Here is your chocolate."

Comment des êtres humains dits "civilisés" 
ont pu qualifier ces années horribles
de "détails" de l'Histoire ??? !!!
