From the author of 'The Things Our Fathers Saw' World War II narrative history trilogyFrom the book: 'I survived because of many miracles. But for me to actually meet, shake hands, hug, and cry together with my liberatorsthe angels of life who literally gave me back my lifewas just beyond imagination.'Leslie Meisels, Holocaust Survivor 'Battlehardened veterans learn to contain their emotions, but it was difficult then, and I cry now to think about it. What stamina and regenerative spirit those brave people showed!'George C. Gross, Liberator 'Never in our training were we taught to be humanitarians. We were taught to be soldiers.'Frank Towers, Liberator 'I cannot believe, today, that the world almost ignored those people and what was happening. How could we have all stood by and have let that happen? They do not owe us anything. We owe them, for what we allowed to happen to them.'Carrol Walsh, Liberator '[People say it] cannot happen here in this country; yes, it can happen here. I was 21 years old. I was there to see it happen.'Luca Furnari, US Army '[After I got home] I cried a lot. My parents couldnt understand why I couldnt sleep at times.'Walter Babe Gantz, US Army medic 'I grew up and spent all my years being angry. This means I dont have to be angry anymore.'Paul Arato, Holocaust Survivor 'For the first time after going through sheer hell, I felt that there was such a thing as simple love coming from good peopleyoung men who had left their families far behind, who wrapped us in warmth and love and cared for our wellbeing.'Sara Atzmon, Holocaust Survivor 'Its not for my sake, its for the sake of humanity, that they will remember.'Steve Barry, Holocaust SurvivorTHE HOLOCAUST was a watershed event in history.
