Time goes by and each day a survivor passes away: is not so far the time we won't have any of them. I wanna say thanks and thanks for eachone of the testimonies on tape. They will last forever.
I know it was different times but I still can't understand how intolerant and cruel normal people were in those days. How they could follow a monster - i can't write anymore as I just can't understand this hate. RIP Mrs Wees. I am proud of the people in our village though in Wales, my 92 year old father remembers one of the big houses in our village that took in lots and lots of children who were Jewish and they had a very nice time here and were welcomed in a safe place.

Take it you didn't get your share of the Nazi profits from .property, melted gold teeth ,,clothing ,, rope and blankets from human hair,,bone fertiliser from the ashes of burnt people,,,? You're only troubled because you are a loser......Go and think about your fatuous mutterings,........Moron....
5/10/18: I thank all the holocaust survivors for sharing their experience of that horrible time. I think MOST of these survivors may no longer with us but the videos are here forever. Everyone need to know of the atrocities done to the Jewish ppl ( or any ppl that have been persecuted in any way due to their race, religion or etc ). It seem that ALL of them ( survivors ) had good childhoods PRIOR TO the holocaust. Thank you, precious people, thank you. Aloha from Hawaii.
To the complainers below, and all others who have some misdirected need to find fault with the interviewer, I say your petty digression should be superseded with Gratitude that this testimony exists. When your ears and hearts are open, you will be less inclined to find fault in a job well done. One that achieved it’s painful, yet important goal. Thank you Judy for volunteering your time, and Elizabeth for your historic testimony.
Don’t you agree that Germany should take the lead in stopping Putin? The conflict is happening near their body. This is Europe’s fight. How can the German people EVER be forgiven for what they did? They can take the lead in stopping Putin. When world War 3 starts (maybe already) Germany should take the lead in fighting it.
Thank you so much for this interview, it captures the reality of a dark period, of which is inspiring to young generations. A lesson from HISTORY in light of a better world. Thank you kindly for sharing .
I am very grateful for Mrs. Wees’ doing this interview and giving her testimony. It was hard for her, painful, yet she was able to give details about her happy family life prior to the Nazis. I hurt for her and mourn the murders of her family members. I am so glad she survived the concentration camps and went on to have a family.
Thank you, Elizabeth, for sharing your moving and very detailed testimony. You are a beautiful woman! God bless you and all those who suffered so severely under the Nazi regime. With all respect and, as stated many times below, the interviewer didn’t have a clue and obviously wasn’t listening! God bless Israel and all the Jewish people!
Miss Wees... thank you for sharing your story. I was right there with you swimming in icy cold water as a child. After school a bunch of us children would trek up into the bush and swim in a nice cold creek 🙂. Glad you survived ❤️🌹
Do you know when I began to cry? When she said her number was removed during surgery. I was cheering for her doctor and hers in the moment. It was as if that element of attempting to stain her body became unsuccessful. Like one more chain was broken. 💕
This interviewer is thick. At least she could show respect, by listening carefully to the person being interviewed so that things don't need to be repeated. It also shows a lack of interest on the interviewers behalf.
This interviewer is interviewing like a lawyer would, because this is for the historical record. She is trying to get every detail correct, so that it can be entered into history accurately. I saw her perform another interview, and I was like “what is WRONG with this B*!” But then I realized what she was doing, she is doing a job, she is trying to get every detail accurate, so she makes them repeat things to get every detail correct. Like when she says “ who is ‘they’?”
God bless this elegant intelligent beautiful woman. I cannot begin to imagine the nightmarish trauma of going from a beautiful happy family life to pure hell almost overnight. Her memories are so fresh and so achingly painful. I find it hard to forgive the perpetrators and I have not even been remotely touched by the Holocaust.
So much respect God bless those we lost and survivors they have a special place in heaven they should've been free on earth though shows we need to talk up and speak now about whats happening in Xinjiang
Shame on Shoah and the interviewer. I have watched a number of the interviews and I think many with this interviewer. The interviewed person will give a tormenting story chocking and almost in tears and the interviewer will ask, "how did you feed about that", causing more pain for the person. ? I'm not sure what the point is other than to drag out more emotion. Elizabeth was in enough pain so to me it seemed heartless.
The interviewer is really bad this woman suffers so much trauma and she keeps going back to it can't she see the lady can't take it anymore It's very bad
What was your kitchen like?how was your house?can you spell your near city ...this are her questions for survival of the holocaust? At least the first 30 minutes of this interview is a completely waste of time because of the lady who is asking all rubbish questions... God bless all this people who survived to the horror of holocaust... God bless Israel and all Jewish people from all over the world!
This is for historical purposes. These details MATTER especially in a world where there are still people that don’t know what happened to their ancestors during the war and there are still people denying the holocaust ever happened. Just because her questions didn’t entertain you doesn’t mean that they were not worthwhile.
@@Kaymeron Exactly ! There are INDEED interviewers in this series that are nothing short of horrible, but the POINT is not just to record memories but to establish a factual record as well.
I like the first bit, it is great to know how people lived back then, she was the same age as my mother, but my mother never told me much about her childhood, but from what Elizabeth said, it was in many ways similar, and also similar in many ways to my own childhood.
Time goes by and each day a survivor passes away: is not so far the time we won't have any of them. I wanna say thanks and thanks for eachone of the testimonies on tape. They will last forever.
Yes they will❤
Reading your comment in August 2024.
G-d bless this amazing woman. I am a seasoned Radio and TV newscaster, & this testimony made me cry, and not a lot does. Her testimony is so poignant.
What a doll of a lady! I would have liked to have given her a hug. Her testimony is very descriptive. It made the past come alive.
These videos really are a fantastic piece of documentation that will last forever.
Thank you for sharing. I will not forget. No one can dispute your testimony.
Thank you for telling your life experience, reliving the horrors must be so difficult, but appreciated so much. Once again i thank you.
I know it was different times but I still can't understand how intolerant and cruel normal people were in those days. How they could follow a monster - i can't write anymore as I just can't understand this hate. RIP Mrs Wees.

In those days? America is enacting policy that discriminates against people as we speak, nothing changes.
I want to thank you for sharing your experiences of the war...you were very strong.

They are a generation of people who survived attrocities. Their testimony is a lesson for human race forever.

July 6, 2016 Mrs Wees died at the age of 91 yrs. May she Rest In Peace.

The interviewer asked questions that this lady had already answered repeatedly, I hope she doesn't do this for a living.
After this humbling testimony, that's the one comment you want to make? I am confused.
Interviewer not Listening to her
Thank you Elizabeth for sharing your story
The torment in this lady's voice has tears streaming down my face. Painful to listen. But we must...
Definitely
Miss Wees... thank you for sharing your story. I was right there with you swimming in icy cold water as a child. After school a bunch of us children would trek up into the bush and swim in a nice cold creek 🙂. Glad you survived ❤️🌹
This whole dreadful experience is still very raw for this beautiful lady. So very sad. I am so pleased that she survived.
thank you for sharing you amazing story to the world : )

A beautiful lady inside and out my heart broke for her thank you for sharing your testimony god bless 🙏🏼x
These roses did not…. Beautiful….. cheers to the Duke! May we never reach so low in humanity ever again….,
What beautiful family!♥️♥️
It’s so disgusting how rape and war are so intertwined.... truly HELL

Elizabeth testimony one of the best. Bless her
Thank you
Do you guys know that this women is actually a related to one of my teachers
My heart breaks for this sweet woman, she shouldn't have had to experience such terrible things.
Is this this interviewer even listening? Asks the most redundant questions.
You have the privilege of listening to an impressive testimony and that's the only comment you choose to leave?
What a lovely lady....
What a poor brave soul. God bless her

God bless this lovely, lovely lady.
God bless you Elizabeth, I don't doubt you are reunited with your friends and family.
Chamberlin didn't sell out Czhecoslovakia, he gave the Sudatenland to Germany. Not the whole of the country.

My gosh this interviewer is terrible.
Survivor: "I arrived in America June 24 1946"
Interviewer: " can you tell me the year you arrived in a America?"
I feel sorry for mrs wees being interviewed by this lady as she doesn't seem to listen
She is so lovely
💔😢
One of my favorite testimonials such a brace girl into woman. Amazing
How dare the interviewer is not telling this lady that the tape is ending??? It is so disrespectful
What is wrong with these interviewees?. They are a disgrace.
🙏🏻💕
Beautiful woman
💔❤️💔❤️
This interviewer is terrible
THANK YOU 🙏🇮🇱🙏

She looks like my aunt Carmen.
"Is that your phone number"? Wtf
This is why America has the second amendment .
