THE MASCOT

http://www.888dag.com/ Just finished reading a book about the Holocaust. It is amazing that 60 years later there are still so many facinating stories that are emerging from this terrible event. It is about a young boy of 5 or 6 that escapes only to witness his whole family being exterminated. He survived in the forest which is unabelievable and was discovered by Latvian Police and taken under their wing. They named him as he could not remember his name and it is the most amazing story. He currently lives in Melbourne Australia - has three sons, and kept his story a secret until recently. Now one one his sons tells the story. Really makes one really think.
