Adding that eventually Miss Sendler was caught by the Nazi’s and beaten and both legs broken for her efforts in saving children. I’m only pointing out that all this horror perpetrated by the Nazies wasn’t occurring in a vacuum. There were many, like Miss Sendler and Cora Ten Boom and those who sheltered Ann Franks’ family and Herr Schindler, in Holland, who tried to help the situation and protect their Jewish neighbors.

That did not come out right. I meant that there were many, like Miss Sendler, Cora Ten Boom in Holland, the people who sheltered Ann Franks' family for a while, and Herr Schindler (Austria?), who tried to help the situation and protect their Jewish neighbors. To do so put their own lives and the welfare of their families in grave risk, but they did so anyway.
