Oral History
Shmuel Rozin discusses events that occurred in and around the Kovno Ghetto on April 5th, 1944; the Children’s Action; how he was hiding with a group of approximately ten partisans, among them were Abrasha Levin, Isaac Silverman, and Brinke Kozak; how Chaim Yellin took on the responsibility of finding transportation and ammunition for the group; how a woman warned the group to leave and suggested they hide with a Lithuanian family; how Yellin sent him in disguise to find three guns; and Yellin’s devotion to saving as many people as possible from the Kovno Ghetto by hiding them in the local forest.
