Mi hermano sent me the following information, which He recently received from the from the daughter of a WW II veteran that helped free one of camps.
The U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, DC, America's national memorial to the Holocaust will honor all the brave soldiers who fought
in W.W. II as part of its 20th anniversary commemoration. World War II was THE salient event in the 20th Century - and its legacy continues to shape
the 21st. The values we cherish were threatened by cruel and oppressive ideologies. But the generation that signed up and put on a uniform, which
believed in the essential goodness of America, and which unselfishly answered the call to duty, was a generation willing to sacrifice everything to
preserve our way of life. The freedoms we enjoy today were assured by the Veterans of W.W. II. The museum recognizes this, and thus wishes to
reach out to all American Veterans of World War II and to accord them our highest honor and deepest gratitude. At the National Tribute in Washington,
DC on APRIL 28 -29,2013 the museum will bring together the people who lived this history - Holocaust Survivors, World War II U.S. and European
officials, for what will most likely be the last gathering of eyewitnesses on this scale. At the Tribute Dinner, the Museum will present the Museum's
Elie Wiesel Award, their highest honor, to the American service men and women who fought in W.W. II, with Susan Eisenhower accepting on their
behalf. Through this tribute, it is their hope to remind the American public, especially our youth, of just what was at stake during World War II and the
enormous sacrifices that were made to preserve the free world. MUCHAS GRACIAS,
