He relates his family's move to Russia after the 1917 Revolution; living in Poland approximately two years; joining his father in Paris in 1925; earning a degree in chemical engineering; volunteering at war's outbreak; attending officers' school; being wounded and captured by the Germans in June 1940; and escaping in July. He recalls being demobilized; working for the Germans to avoid capture; marriage; assisting in resistance activities through his wife and brother-in-law; hiding Jews in their apartment; three arrests by the Gestapo; moving to Salies-de-Be̋arn in 1942 for his wife's health; bribing the border guards to smuggle Jews into unoccupied France; emigration to the United States in 1949; and finding employment through the editor of a Jewish newspaper. He tells about a Russian Orthodox priest in Paris who saved many Jews by providing them with baptismal certificates. Mr. B. discusses his belief that one must act against victimization and such action should be considered the norm rather than praiseworthy. 500 Additional written documentation is available in the repository. 562 |e2 copies: |b3/4 in. dub; |band 1/2 in.
