    I’ve read the report he wrote after escaping. The part about his night in the camp hospital is hard to forget.

    Wow, that was a rabbit hole I was not expecting to enter today. As a German, I was taught a lot about the Nazi regime, but for some reason, the raport was so direct, so merciless, it brought a whole new level of understanding for me. Thank you, for making me aware of this absolute hero and incredible person.
