Eyewitness to History: Holocaust Survivor Alfred Münzer

The Eyewitness to History video library was created to enable audiences everywhere to hear firsthand testimony from Holocaust survivors. This video was created from a live digital program, First Person: Conversations with Holocaust Survivors, recorded on September 7, 2022. It features Holocaust survivor Alfred Münzer, who was born in the German-occupied Netherlands in 1941. At one year old, Al was placed into the care of a Dutch-Indonesian family for his protection. After liberation, Al’s mother, who survived several concentration camps, including Auschwitz, returned and they were reunited.

The person who denounced his own wife, resulting in the death of the two children must have been a callous brute. I don't think he will be saved.

That to me was also the most shocking part! HIS OWN WIFE! Who was trying to help innocent children! What was he even thinking? I can barely believe someone can be such a brute, so loveless and evil. I’m at a loss for words …

He's rotting in hell now.
