Mr Petit as Landru was known to Guillin, tricked her into bringing a large trunk with all her valuables as they were to leave for Australia where he was to be appointed as Consul. The day after he had all her belongings moved to his warehouse at 43 Rue Parmontan in Neuilly.

The concentration camp of Dachau is liberated by units of 3rd Battalion, 157th Infantry Regiment, 45th Infantry Division, commanded by Lieutenant Colonel Felix L. Sparks and the 222nd Infantry Regiment of the 42nd Rainbow Infantry Division soldiers led by Brigadier General Henning Linden in Konzentrationslager Dachau, Dachau, Bayern, Germany. Since 1945 adherents of the 42nd and 45th Division versions of events have argued over which unit was the first to liberate Dachau.
