With the 60th anniversary of the infamous voyage of the Exodus, the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, in partnership with “Exodus 1947,” an Israeli project, is seeking to locate and find the 4,500 passengers who were on this ship. To date close to 1,000 have been located in Israel and we are determined to find the rest.
