Most of the Belgian employees working there had no choice but to aid the occupiers' war efforts; in the process, they lost their lives. 307 civilian employees of the factory were killed in the bombing raid; many of their bodies have never been found.
Albert was among them. His body, tragically, was destroyed in the attack; no traces of his remains could ever be identified.
