A memorial record of Jewish martyrs and heroes to perpetuate the memory of those who died in the Second World War will be inaugurated here by the Jewish Community, it was announced today. The memorial will be known as “The Book of Brussels Jewish Martyrs.”

Belgian Jews desiring to have inscribed in the book the names of members of their families buried in Belgium or elsewhere during the war are asked to contact Communaute Israelite Bruxelles, Brussels, indicating the full name of the deceased, the place and date of birth, civil title, military rank, place and date of arrest and deportation, place and date of death and any other useful information.
