Yehuda Lerner
the 17 yr old emblematic hero of the Sobibor uprising is still alive, and a year younger than Lanzmann, who immortalised him in the classic Sobibor: 14th October 1943 documentary.
― calzino, Tuesday, 22 May 2018 20:13 (six years ago) link
I'm just re-watching it tonight, it is a gripping watch, yet again. Yehuda had escaped from 8 Nazi camps and one major Nazi killing facility, in which he'd played a key role in it's famous inmate uprising, and helped murder a mid-level SS commander - all by the age of 17. I'd get some beers in for him.
