I've total respect for anyone who had to go through that.

I went to Auschwitz a couple of months ago, it's a real eye opener.

A very impressive man. It is a good example of the spirit which existed during WW2. He was never going to give in the the vicious **** troopers as long as was possible. His escape is something to be proud of too.

What a great story, and a great quote that he refused an operation because he saw it as 'giving in to the *****' Utmost respect for him
