Made two trips to Dachau...40 years later, I still remember the sense of evil I felt while walking the grounds. Also visited Flossenburg twice, it was cleaned up/not as stark, but still sobering.

He did survive, he did get out. And I got to grow up with my Opa. However, if he had died in the camp (as a lot of our relatives did of course), I might have still existed, because my dad was 7 and they got him out of the country to England on the Kindertransport train. He was raised from then through high school by English foster parents. One of the luckiest of families because only 10% of the kids on that Transport ever saw their parents again. Amazing stories I grew up with and I take nothing for granted.
