    I was very fortunate to have known & loved this man’s dear son, Alan. It was a special gift in my life to have known Alan, and I am forever endeared and grateful to this man and family. Peaceful blessings to his remaining family.

    This gentleman has a unique story. I am sure that he is deceased by now (2022) so I am grateful that he recorded his life story so we can learn from him. May we always remember to stand up when anyone is being bullied or disrespected. We are all created by God. We are all brothers and sisters. We all have faults and good in us. May the good always outweigh the deficits.

    What a RUDE interviewer. When he offers to show her an item he has from the war she immediately barked "UH UH SIT DOWN". How dare you. Rude? No respect for older people? They should find out who this lady is from 20 years ago and call her up and tell her off.

      SO RUDE. SO SO SO RUDE. "UH UH SIT DOWN" when he offers to show her an item. She needed to get a lecture on manners. It's hard to imagine how she can talk to anyone like that. If she talked to my elderly father like that I'd let her have it. This was like 20 years ago, but someone should look that woman up and tell her off.

    Well, the unfriendliness of a waiter should not be seen as anti-Semitism as an unfriendly person is unfriendly to everone. And some waiters in Vienna are unfriendly, I know it, because I live in Vienna. However, very moving testimony. It is so shamefull of what had happened to Mr Zell and his family, and to so many other people as well. It is hard to understand and to find words for it. So shamefull!

    I don't know what it is but the male interviewers are usually so much better than the female interviewers. I can get so irritated when they are rude and interrupt and it's because these survivors deserve the utmost respect and kindness and consideration. Where do they find these awful interviewers anyway????

    I appreciate all these videos of their testimonies but some questions seem so pointless like what was your teachers name, what did they look like. This could become a identity stealing situation 😩 I mean they have all their personal information. I wonder if they wait to release these until after they pass away. That would make sense with the amount of personal information dob, mothers maiden name, etc.

    The correct title would be "Jewish Survivor and Liberator". Extermey rare but certainly interesting. By the way - I don't like the distinction between "Jewish" and "Political" survivors. Aren't they all survivors? Anita and Eva Lasker for example were bpth political and Jewisch survivors and so were many others.
