Joseph Stalin give them a huge piece of land in the far South- East corner of the Soviet Union which is still carrying the name of “ Jewish federation “. The so called “ Holocaust “ was in deed a pleasurable travel in first class trains with sleeping cart on the Trans Siberian train, filled with treasures arts and other valuables. If I’m gonna reach that age as that worm did, I could tell stories about what a big heroes my folks were. Careful scientists proved that Anna Frank Diary was in deed a hook, but can not put it in the news because that is in their hands to.

    I am a physician and have a patient who is of German descent and was 12 years old during beginning of WWII. She tells a story of how her father was re-enlisted as an officer (in 1938) into the SS and he knew exactly what they were doing. He played along with them so he could try to help. He would memorize names at work of those Jews who were to be taken from their homes in the upcoming week or weeks. He would contact them and tell them they needed to leave immediately and only take 2 layers of clothing and what they could carry in 1 hand. She mentioned a few other officers were caught writing down names and were shot on site so he never wrote down anything. He organized with friends an underground network of businesses that would smuggle Jewish families out of Germany and did this throughout the war. One person who helped him was a friend who had a tobacco shop next door and a secret small room the men used to play poker in and smoke cigars. The room was behind the fireplace. He made it look more discreet and would put the families in hiding until the next underground station was ready. She states that he explicitly told them not to try to thank him or call or write to him as these would all be traced back and he would be killed and wouldn't be able to help anyone else. Her mother helped as she could by baking food for the Jews and others escaping. Her mother and father at the end of the war estimated he had saved over 500 families. He never told anyone and nobody ever wrote it down until I am doing it now. She said her father never wanted credit and he was doing 'God's work' in an 'Evil Time and Place'. She is still alive but slowing down a bit and the sweetest woman you can imagine.
    God Bless her and her father and all those who endured and were able to either help or were helped.

    Sir Nicholas Winton lived in my birth town of Maidenhead for many years after this event. As a taxi driver, I would drive him occasionally and never connected him with these heroics. As well as a sculpture of him at Maidenhead railway station, there is now a memorial garden in a local park where one can read and learn of his exploits. Happily, his story will live on and inspire.

Sure, he took advantage of his unique position and saved 669 children, but perhaps if he'd tried a little harder, maybe he could have saved more.

    What a wonderful man! Not only did he save 669 children but also 669 future generations. I believe he received a hero's welcome home when he arrived in heaven as well as a standing ovation from each of these children's deceased parents.

    One of my sisters and I spent two weeks on vacation at his house in Maidenhead, England when we were young (I think I was 14, she was 12). He was a friend of my parents, who only learned very late that he was a hero. He had never talked about what he had done. He and his Danish wife were so nice (she cooked like a chef!) I'm proud to have known him personally.
