Members phkrause Posted July 3, 2016 Members Posted July 3, 2016 I was very sad to hear this news. I'm not sure if he and my dad knew each other in Buchenwald Concentration Camp? They both were liberated there in 1945!! Seems like my dad was a few years older than Elie.

Actually it turns out he was 9 years younger than my dad. Elie was born in 1928, my father 1919.
