He tells of the deaths of his mother and grandmother in 1938; the outbreak of the war; anti-Jewish legislation; and his dismissal from public school. He relates the establishment of the Płaszów camp on the site of the Jewish cemetery; his and his father's transport in March 1940 to Kraśnik, near Lublin, where they joined his older brother; their internment in the Bełżyce ghetto; and ghetto life, which was characterized by round-ups, deportations and random violence. He describes the liquidation of the ghetto, which he, his father, and brother escaped, and the formation of a sub-camp of Majdanek in its place. Upon the liquidation of the sub-camp in May 1942 they were taken to Budsin. He speaks of his slave labor there; stealing weapons and ammunition for the camp resistance; and an unsuccessful escape attempt by some resistance members. He relates his transfer to Majdanek in June 1944; the death march a short time later to Auschwitz/Birkenau, and from there to Gleiwitz; his arrival at Blechhammer in January 1945; and his slave labor in Plauen until his liberation by the Americans. He also recounts his emigration to Israel in 1948 and his encounter with a former camp commander in Bridgeport, Connecticut. (Abstract)","This testimony is open with permission.
