After years of research, the director of the Compiègne Internment and Deportation Memorial found part of the archives of the Royallieu camp, forgotten in the attic of the local Red Cross. Among these documents, two lists of more than 4,000 names of deportees, including that of the death convoy, which left on July 2, 1944 for Dachau.
