Comments on: An American Doctor's Quiet Fight in Occupied Paris http://www.historynet.com/an-american-doctors-quiet-fight-in-occupied-paris.htm From the World's Largest History Magazine Publisher Wed, 22 May 2013 17:59:23 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Bill Murray http://www.historynet.com/an-american-doctors-quiet-fight-in-occupied-paris.htm#comment-921864 Bill Murray Mon, 04 Mar 2013 22:28:58 +0000 http://www.historynet.com/?p=13682493#comment-921864 Dear Loraine, I just finished the well researched book, Americans in Paris by Charles Glass. Your grandfather and father both should receive more recognition by Americans, at least, the Medal of Freedom. Unfortunately, as every day passes, more and more of the WWII generation are passing away and into history. It's time to teach the current generation about the heroes of that era, time and place. Americans should be inspired to tell this story in TV movie or at least, documentary. .I will visit the American Hospital in Paris the next time I'm there and pay homage to your grandfather's memory. He was simply a hero of our nation and his profession! It's time contact your congressional delegates in this matter. Best regards, Bill Murray Las Vegas, NV Dear Loraine,

I am the granddaughter of Lucienne Dixon (Jeff). She was with the CND. She was in Ravensbruck with Charlotte Jackson. I had posted on the Free French website about my grandmother. A Swedish journalist contacted me and let me know about a documentary of the journey from Ravensbruck to Malmo, Sweden. I was sent a still of the documentary to identify as my grandmother. She is standing next to Charlotte Jackson throughout the film. I guess they were friends. This is the website to the documentary Harbour of Hope. www.autoimages.se Please contact me. I would love to hear from you. Cordially, France Dear Ms. Riemer,

I'm working on a project right now about the Resistance, a large part of which was inspired by your grandfather's story. As the granddaughter of an American doctor who worked overseas, I felt a kindred appreciation for what Dr. Jackson did. I'm from Boston as well, and would love to connect with you somehow to learn anything more you might be able to share with me about his experiences. Very unfortunately!

He finished Thomas Jefferson Medical School in Philadelphia and I completed my fellowship there in urology. The book indicates he was a genito-urinary surgeon. My daughter lived in the 6th arrondissement in Paris and in Boston, Ma. while in school. What a small world! Your grandfather was and remains a fascinating individual.

He still lives in Paris. Unfortunately my grandfather was not awarded the Medal of Freedom, even though I found an un-dated Citation for it. I live in Boston MA, feel free to contact me.
