A Real British Hero - The Man Who Broke Into Auschwitz

[cancel2 2022]

I was watching the BBC earlier today and they had Denis Avey on. He is 92 but looks and sounds at least 30 years younger, his story is hard to believe until you realise it is all true. He only found out recently that Hans had survived the camp and died at the age of 77.

I may be wrong but it doesn't look like he was in the Jewish part of the camp like Denis Avey, although he was a brave man nonetheless.

He may have been, but I don't know either. I'm not trying to knock Denis either mind you, just figured that the stories relate.
