«Righteous: Breisjoberget Ola». @yadvashem (på engelsk). Yad Vashem. Besøkt 15. februar 2024. «Nina Hackel Hasvol was the director of the institution. She had been born in St Petersburg in 1910, studied in Berlin, and was living in Oslo as of 1936. On 25 November 1942, when for the first time Jewish women and children were to be arrested, she received a warning about the imminent arrest of her wards. Nina immediately called Nic Waal, a psychiatrist and friend with whom she had studied in Berlin. Waal rushed to the orphanage, which was beautifully decorated for the holiday of Hannukah, and the two women divided the children into two groups. Waal took the first group in her car to Gerda Tanberg’s home, while Nina stayed with the other group until they too could be taken to safety. Berthold Grunfeld, one of the children, later testified that once at Tanberg’s apartment the women dyed the hair of two of the girls from black to blond. From their temporary hideout in the Tanberg apartment the children were taken in groups by a taxi driver by the name of Martin Solvang, a Communist and an acquaintance of Waal. Then Ola Rauken and Ola Breisjoberget took the children over the border into Sweden. Nina Hackel-hasveold stayed with the children all the way. When the Germans arrived at the orphanage later that night, they found the place empty. All the children had been brought to safety. On 20 March 2006 Yad Vashem recognized Nina Hackel-Hasvold, Nic Waal, Martin Solvang, Gerda Tanberg, Ola Rauken and Ola Breisjoberget as Righteous Among the Nations.»
«Hougen Helga». @yadvashem (på engelsk). Yad Vashem. Besøkt 14. februar 2024. «Bjørn was a professor at the university of Oslo and Torbjørg was at home with their son, Pål, b.1930. Amalie and Dan were immediately brought to Bjørn Hougen’s sister Helga for some days and then to his cousin, also by the name, Helga Hougen. Meanwhile, Bjørn who was a member of the Norwegian Underground*, arranged for mother and child to be sent on to Sweden. Indeed, about a week after their arrival at cousin Helga’s, a member of the Underground contacted them and took both to the border with neutral Sweden. Both Amelie and her son Dan Laksov survived thanks to the Hougen family. On October 27, 2002, Yad Vashem recognized Bjørn and Torbjørg Hougen, as well as Helga Hougen and Helga Hougen as Righteous Among the Nations.»

«Righteous: Sæthre Haakon». @yadvashem (på engelsk). Yad Vashem. Besøkt 15. februar 2024. «That same evening [Robert] Levin had a visit from Dr. Diesen – Chief Medical Doctor of Oslo, and the father of Ernst Diesen, a famous cabaret performer at the Chat Noir. In order to protect Levin, Dr. Diesen had Levin hospitalized in the Ullevål Hospital under a false diagnosis. He instructed Levin to pretend he was suffering from a nervous breakdown, and assigned him to Department 6, which he felt was the safest. The chief physician of that department, Dr. Haakon Sæthre, made sure that the “patient” was looked after and kept from harm's way. (---) In addition to hiding 12 other Jews in the Ullevål Hoopital, Dr. Sæthre was involved in other activities of the Resistance. In February 1945 he was seized in his home and taken hostage in retaliation for an assassination attempt by the Norwegian Resistance movement. He was shot to death on 9 February 1944. On 12 March 2013 Yad Vashem recognized Dr. Haakon Sæthre and Dr. Andreas Diesen as Righteous Among the Nations.»
