I was sitting today watching a special on the television about modern Neo-Nazis and Holocaust denial. I then got on the internet and was horrified by what I read about these organizations. As a person proud of both my German and my Jewish ancestry--THANK YOU for making sure that the horrors of the Holocaust are never forgotten. And THANK YOU doubly for celebrating the courage and strength of the survivors and their families. |

I find is amazing that after only little more then 65 years after this, the worse atrocity to ever happen in human history. That there are people that believe the Holocaust is fabricated and nothing like this could ever happen. I am grateful that memorials like yours and the memorial in Auschwitz, Poland are there so that future generation will always remember. And so it will never become 'old news' and forgotten. Project Paper Clip moved me more then any other, children in rural Tennessee that accomplished more with their little project then mountains of documents. I am sure Simon Wiesenthal is smiling down from heaven upon you all. |

I am 25 years old and I cried when I read about all this. No human being should have had to endure this crime against humanity! I will never forget and I will let my nephew know about this. No one should ever go through life without knowing this. Im so sorry for all those who suffered and lost family in this tradgy! We will never forget and God bless you all! |

I just returned from Washington DC with my son's 8th grade class trip. We visited the Holocaust Museum. It was a very moving experience for me. I never understood when I was would study that time period why or how someone could hate a race or person so much. I was crying before I even got totally into the building, the kids didn't understand. However, by the first five minutes I think they all understood why the adults were having such a hard time going into the building. Well, I know that I didn't want to go into it, because I knew some of what I had see in history books would be there--but it would be tenfold. I was raised Quaker and we were raised to love everyone-- no matter what color of their skin, relgious belief, or amount of money that you made. I am so sorry that you and your families had to endure the pain placed upon you because of one stupid man. I am so grateful that those of you that have the courage to pass your story of your passion for freedom, life, and family on to those of us who will only be able to learn from your strength.
As a parent I promise my child will never make anyone suffer for being different. Please know that your stories do touch the hearts of millions young and old. thank you again. |

About two years ago i went to the Holocaust Musuem as a school field trip. Before i had entered that museum i had never really thought that the Holocaust had been that much of a tragic event but boy was i shocked it was the saddest thing i had ever seen i will never forget the pictures and the videos that we watched they were very impressive. I love reading all of Ellie Wiesels books but they make me cry once i am done with them. It reminds that innocent people got killed because of one man and what he thought |

To: The Greatest Generation,
I have no direct, personal, connection with the Holocaust. I am not a Jew, or a German. None of my family members were killed in the War. I am a guy in his early 30s that was raised in Phoenix, Arizona. I AM, however, terrified and appalled, moved and inspired by the testimony of the survivors. I'm writing this to swear to you and to myself that these atrocities will not be forgotten. I will pass the torch.
With all respect and humility,
Generation X |
