Witness to the Storm ― A Jewish Journey from Nazi Berlin to the 82nd Airborne, 1920?945
商品資訊
商品簡介
On June 6, 1944, Werner T. Angress parachuted down from a C-47 into German-occupied France with the 82nd Airborne Division. Landing behind enemy lines, he evaded capture for nine days, behind being captures and eventually rescued to rejoin the fight. Although he was now a solider in the United States 82nd Airborne Division, less than ten years before he had been an enthusiastically patriotic German-Jewish boy. Rejected and threatened by the Nazi regime, Angress and his family fled to Amsterdam to escape persecution and death, with Angress finding his way to the United States. In Witness to the Storm, Angress weaves the spelling-binding story of his life, including his escape from Germany, new life in the United States, and experiences in World War II, from basic training to his role in liberating a concentration camp. A testament to the power of perseverance and forgiveness, it is the powerful tale of one man's struggle to fight for and rescue the country that had betrayed him.
