[3] Born in Belleville-sur-Meuse on 28 July 1912,[1] Suzanne Henriette Jannin studied dentistry at Nancy, receiving her diploma in 1939.
As a member of the Meuse department's F.F.I., Region C, under Colonel Grandval, she lodged British and American parachutists, escorting them from Verdun to the Swiss border.
She also provided medical services, transmitted news reports, and transported documents, weapons and munitions.
Rather than take on administrative duties, she found a 4-by-4 vehicle which enabled to ferry French prisoners back from Germany.
She returned to France in 1954, where she continued to serve as an Air Force dentist until 1957, stationed first in Saclay and then in Châtillon-sous-Bagneux.
[5] In September 2019, a plaque in memory of "Suzanne Jannin Pilote en Indochine" was unveiled by Le Souvenir Français at Belleville-sur-Meuse, her birthplace.
