Maurice Strauch kept a journal while in hiding in Brussels in 1943-1944. Post-war he took the 18 notebooks with him to Canada. After his passing in 2013, the Strauch family decided to contact Kazerne Dossin, as was Maurice's wish. The original notebooks were donated to the Kazerne Dossin documentation center in 2018.
