I was unaware of Korzcak
He went to Treblinka with his 200 orphans and other staff who chose death to stay with the children.
He was offered the option to go to either hide on the gentile section of Warsaw or to be sent to the following :

Where a sizable minority of Jews survived the war in Bohemia ....Czech Republic today
Amazing story....there is quite a bit on him out there....
I know tons of Shoah films have been done but his story is as worthy as any
I was unaware of him until I moved to Warsaw. He ought to be better known.
