Graeme Warrack: oral surgeon and war hero
1Department of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, Radboud University, Nijmegen, The Netherlands.
Abstract:
This paper describes the heroic efforts of Graeme Warrack, an oral surgeon, to save as many lives as possible during the battles around Arnhem in 1944. As the chief medical officer (CMO) of the medical section of the 1st British Airborne Division, he and his staff took care of many casualties, both on the battlefield and at the emergency hospital in Apeldoorn, north of Arnhem. He escaped from the hospital when all the patients were to be transported to prisoner of war (POW) camps in Germany, and was hidden by a Dutch family. Finally, with the help of the Dutch resistance movement, he was successfully ferried over the big rivers into liberated country.

The frontal bone is thickened just above each supraorbital margin,...
