- Summary
- Videotape testimony of Alexander L., a non-Jew who was born in Kiev in 1936. He describes leaving Russia in 1941 at the onset of the German occupation of Kiev; the fear of being separated from his parents; and imprisonment in labor camps in Germany from 1942 until 1944/1945. He remembers on-going travel, and hearing shots fired but never seeing any bodies. He tells of going to Czechoslovakia after the war and expresses the hope that his children will never have similar experiences.
