- Henry Kaufman (1920-2000) was born to Russian immigrant parents and raised in New York City. He arrived in North Africa as a replacement and was severly wounded at Kasserine Pass. Reassigned to "H" Company, Second Bn., 157th Regiment, 45th Infantry Division, Henry made the invasions of Sicily and Italy. He was captured at Anzio and ultimately sent as a prisoner of war to Germany. His experiences have been written about in several books, including The Rock Of Anzio: From Sicily To Dachau, A History Of The U.S. 45th Infantry Division by Flint Whitlock. Henry's memoir, Vertrauensmann = Man of confidence : the story of an American ex-prisoner of World War II is available on Amazon.
This interview was filmed in Beverly Hills, just days before Henry died, unexpectedly, after surgery. He is buried at Arlington National Cemetery.
In Loving Memory of Henry and Beatrice Kaufman and their son Sheldon Kaufman.
Dedicated to Michael Kaufman.
