My Dad’s outfit liberated the camp at Ebensee, Austria.
Almost all survivors of the camps were teenagers, the old and very young died.
A liberated prisoner from Ebensee found my Dad’s outfit at one of their reunions 50 years later. He simply said, “I’ve been looking for you guys for 50 years.”
My dad said that as they were fighting the Nazis in
Italy & making their way up to Germany, word came down
through the ranks of what the Nazis were doing to the
Jews. He said they began fighting even harder than before
trying to get to them. Army Infantry, 88th/351st
