Helga Levy Interview For The Faces Of The Holocaust Series, Helga Levy, Renate Frydman

Emmanuel Ringelblum Collection of Oral History Memoirs of the Holocaust (MS-215)

A native of Berlin, Helga Levy witnessed first-hand the rise of Nazi power. She was in grade school when the first discriminatory laws were passed against Jews, and learned what it was like to have her identity as a German taken away. While still in her teens she was forced to work in a munitions factory, and was left to fend for herself when her parents were taken away by the Gestapo.

Emmanuel Ringelblum Collection of Oral History Memoirs of the Holocaust (MS-215)

Delbert Cooper was born in Dayton and graduated from Fairmont High School in 1941. As a soldier with the 71 st Infantry Division in 1945, he was among the first Americans to enter and liberate Gunzkirchen, a satellite of the notorious Mauthausen concentration camp.

Born on a farm in Harlan County, Kentucky, Fred enlisted in the U.S. Army in 1942. He was trained as a medical corpsman in England and participated in the Normandy invasion in June 1944. He was with Patton's 3rd Army as it moved across France and Belgium into Germany in 1944-45. Allied troops were not told of the existence of the concentration camps (although their superiors knew), and it was often a traumatic experience when young soldiers stumbled into them. As Fred said, even the horrors of the battlefield were not enough to prepare someone for his first sight of …
