    I grew up in a mid-size city in Illinois in the 1960s and 1970s. There were several Holocaust survivors there with one couple being friends with my parents. They were in our home quite often. The husband was a foreman in a mattress factory and he gave me a job for two summers while I was in college. There were several survivors who worked there. One man had a number tattooed on his arm and worked in the crematoria in Auschwitz. Near the end of the war, he was part of a forced march to Dachau where he was liberated by US troops. The stories I heard from him and from other survivors are as fresh in my mind today as they were when I first heard them 50 years ago.

      Not something that you can really forget and in my humble opinion, should never be lost from history.
      How about writing down some of the things that you remember being told?
      Perhaps just to pass down to kids or a museum, or even send to the guy that did this vid?
      Only my thoughts in type lol.

      I was in the Air Force and the base was showing Schlender's List and after it was hosting a meeting with a camp survivor.
      I had seen the movie and didn't want to see it again but, I stopped by to find out what time the meeting was starting.
      As I walked into the lobby and old man came out of the theater and he was taking a drink out of a flask. I just knew he was the camp survivor.
      We talked and he looked back at the door of the theater, and he said, "That movie doesn't show you hardly anything that I saw in those camps. There is no way they could show it."

    My grandfather told me of when they arrived at Dachau. He only spoke of it once. I had never seen him cry. Not even when a railroad spike went through his hand. It was so hard for him to bring it up. He told me that his commanding officer gathered up all the guards around the yard. Forced them into a box car, took one of their own grease guns and straight executed them. He didnt say whether or not he approved of this action, but he understood it completely.

      I've only seen it once, but I saw a video of guards that were turned over to the prisoners. They formed a circle and mostly with shovels beat the guards to death. You could see them bouncing off the ground between the legs of the prisoners.
      One US unit that took Dachau did kill the guards. The Army at first considered charging them with war crimes but Patton stopped it. After seeing the pictures of the camps, there wasn't much of a call for them to be put on trial.

      We weren’t officially taught anything about it, and we really didn’t learn much about WW2 because it was the Cold War era. I think the school boards were more interested in teaching us that the USSR was evil. However, one of our teachers had numbers tattooed on his arm. If anyone asked, and every year someone was sure to ask, he would tell us about the camp where he had been. We’d go home and ask our parents and uncles and they’d give us more of the story. I was allowed to get books out of the library but there really wasn’t much. My mom got me a copy of Anne Frank’s diary and I’ve been studying WW2 ever since.

    My brother-in-law’s parents were Polish and at the end of WW2, his father - Władek (pronounced Vwa-deck) was in the Polish Army and his mother (Stefania) was with the Polish Red Cross.
    After Auschwitz was liberated, they were sent in to help out, his dad was clearing the dead and his mother was treating the sick. At no point did they ever meet each other !
    It’s only after they met and started courting (dating) that they both realised they had been helping out at Auschwitz at the same time.
    After they married, they came to the U.K. and settled in London.
    Another odd thing about them was their surname. Pockert is a German surname and somewhere along Władek’s lineage a Polish/German marriage must have took place. Władek & Stefania’s best friends in London were a German couple who had a Polish surname !
    They were lovely people - I can remember Stefania had a lovely smile and a very thick accent - her and Władek could both speak English, but Stefania couldn’t always pronounce words well, nor could she write English. Władek on the other hand, could, so when Stefania wanted to write a letter to her many sisters and brothers back home in Poland, she would recite it in Polish to her husband and he would translate it into English and write it down at the same time. He was a very extraordinary man.
    I can also remember them teaching me bits of Polish as a child - I was 10 when I first met them at my niece’s Christening in 1979. My sister had also started to teach me bits of Polish too, as she had learned it from her husband (they’d both met at Sheffield University around 1968/69 (there are 19 years between Mary and myself ! [I also have another 2 sisters and 3 brothers between me and her]).
    I’ve always remembered this early learning and have learned more here and there throughout my life.
    I speak Polish to my customers who come into the charity shop I volunteer at (British Red Cross) in Manchester, north west England. Most of them are quite astonished when they find out I’m English and that I’ve never visited Poland because they tell me I have a very strong Polish accent, and that very few English people can speak Polish so well !
    I’m sure that Stefania & Władek would be quite proud that I have carried on loving the Polish culture and language all my life !

      ​​@@MargDBXGermany invaded Poland in September 1939.. Britain declared war on Germany, upholding their treaty.

Hardly talked about in our history classes as the Irish were Catholic, in our 75% protestant country - we are lied to about the Crusades, Inquisition, Luther's "valiant" struggle against the pope, when all it was - a shift of taxes from the Church to the German princes [same in England]

The teacher, in order to provide some context for the class, ot her hands on footage shot by the Soviet Army at the liberation of Auschwitz. We had to get permission slips signed by our parents. The teacher warned us that it would be graphic, and indeed it was. it made a profound, lifelong impact on me, and I suspect, on the other students in the class.

The 'option' given to him was to lead a pointless 'revolt' without any weapons when the SS was coming to take everyone out of the family camp and he knew how that would end, similar to the brutal emptying/destruction of the Zigeunerlager. Fredy will always be remembered as an angel for what he did the children and a hero because he also managed to save several young teenage youth, who were taken out of the Czech family lager beforehand thanks to him .

I watched the original films of the liberation of the death camps. ALL of them. They turned my stomach and I really wasn't sure that I hadn't imagined things, so I MADE myself watch them all again.
    I am so glad that I did. Because this should NEVER, EVER, NEVER be forgotten.
    I also made my two children watch the same films when they were a few years older than I had been. They didn't cry or stuff like that. Instead we had some very serious discussions and I believe that I did the right thing. Passing it down a generation. They are both very happy and productive members of society with no hatred etc BTW.

    For people not knowing I'm sure it has to do with different education in different countries focussing on what's more related to their country. For me in the Netherlands, the holocaust and Auschwitz were taught almost religiously when learning about WWII. I suppose in highsight one of the reasons was because of Anne Frank. But it was taught and treated with more importance than for example learning about the US or British army (that you see in a lot of movies). I'm glad we were taught about this so early. Now a days I enjoy learning more information about WW2 that wasn't highlighted as much like about the US Military or British Army.
