Dutch term or phrase: Dienst voor Ras- en Erfgezondheidszorg

XXX hechtte kennelijk zoveel belang aan zijn ideaal van de �geteelde elite� dat hij dit in de oorlogsjaren in zijn eigen gezin in de praktijk trachtte te brengen. Via Delbaere leerde hij de jonge ambitieuze SS-arts Jan van der Hoeven (1912-1998) kennen, hoofd van de Dienst voor Ras- en Erfgezondheidszorg en leider van de sectie Biologen en Eugenetici van het Medisch Front.
