Saks, a survivor of the holocaust, stated that very few children emerged alive from the holocaust.
Saks was saved by a train by the red-cross. till this day, Saks still wonders why he has survived, since he was on the streak of death. Many kids under 18 were considered useless and were put to work but were also killed right on the spot more frequently. Most of the information about the holocaust was received from the survivors, from these survivors, likely to become authors, stated that it was a miracle that they were saved. "If German racist policies were terrible, they were even worse for the bewildered children" stated by John Benrose wrote the article 'young survivors'. There were many acts as rescues towards the Jews. One way was the lost transport, a train that carried 2,500 holocaust victims that left the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp. This traveled far east to find a safe haven for the Jews on board, where the Nazis wouldn't find them. There were in total 7,000 Jews rescued from all concentration camps. |
