I never heard of this, but I remember reading in the eighties about one Jewish woman doctor in a concentration camp who performed abortions on women prisoners because they would be put to death when it was discovered they were pregnant, or become the subjects of experiments first.

After the war, when she was an obstetrician delivering babies she would say to God, "God, you owe me a living child here." The story broke my heart. The only abortionist I ever cried for.

I think her story was made into a movie.

American actress starred in it, as I recall.

The movie was Out of the Ashes, about Dr. Gisella Perl.
