This is my fathers older sister. My aunt. How wonderful to stumble upon. I will forever be gratefull to the danish people for helping and saving our family and the rest of the tiny community. And i will as well be gratefull to the Swedes for taking the community in with open arms.
That is so wonderful. I am happy for you. I am curious. Yes. She mentions speaking Yiddish so I am guessing they were from Poland first
As I'm a Swede, I am very pleased Sweden acted as humans should.
As well as the Danes, love and respect to the Bishop who helped and organized the rescue for several people😘
Canadas SHAME ..Canada facillitates the laundering of Blood Money
Hochtief AG of Essen Germany . This Company created its start up Capital operating eleven slave labour Death Camps for the Nazis. They sucessfully safeguarded their Blood money after WW2 and subsequiently funded corporate criminality in South Africa / Greece / Australia . Notwithstanding , Hochtief AG entered Canada and took control of one of Canadas largest Construction companies ( Clark Builders ofEdmonton ) Hochtief AG is now funded by Canadian taxpayers through Federal and Provincial GVMNT Contracts
@@elisabetosthsvanberg1095 Ah...actually the Danes, to this day, do not like the Swedes. Sweden did not resist the nazis on their march to Norway.
My mother was also born in Denmark. I love hearing a Dane speak English. My moms cousin married a Jew in Denmark. They had a daughter. My moms cousin Lisa and their daughter Jytte escaped to Sweden in one of those fishing boats.
Thank you dear Chalupovitsch family . A wonderful opportunity for us to learn so much .God bless you all.
She’s so wonderfully articulate. Thanks to all who a hand and making this living history available..
The interview went very well.
This interviewer at this time took the right amount of time to get information from the Survivor.
It was a respectful interview.
The synagogue in Krystalgade still exists. It's behind a metal fence. Maybe that's the word Ms Chalupovitsch was searching for when describing the synagogue.
Tak. Meget rørende. En vigtig beretning for fremtiden, men også for nutiden.
A privilege to listen to this testimony..
I visited Copenhagen from Gothenburg in Sweden.And had the opportunity to see the main schule there.But I was late davening for maariv.
What an inspirational woman. 🙏🏼❤️
Beautiful lady. God bless your family.
😁thanks for the blessing
My parents had a polish jew hiding in their home for some time,and after the war,I remember he came to visit!
Please boost your volume. The tapes are old and the volume needs to be enhanced for the hard of hearing.
Some of my Dad Fred White's family members died in the Holocaust. My Dad, Fred White was born on April 23, 1917, and he was in the NAVY during World War 2. There are exhibits at some of the museums for documents that are kept on file for family members of people who died in the Holocaust. There is also a genealogy research library at some of the Jewish centers.
My Dad, Fred White's gravesite is located at Beth David Cemetery in Elmont, New York in Long Island.
My oldest uncle was in the Army CORPS of Engineers...he and his group possibly in the 3rd Army (Patton) went into Buchenwald Concentration Camp and saw hell on earth.
After I don''t know how many years in the US, she still has a strong Danish accent..... 🙂
What a pity the volume is so low, I am unable to hear enough to follow the story.
My mother's family came from the same place in Lithuania...they went to London...1890 ??
Vilnius? That’s where my in-laws parents moved To England from.
@@Marenlauder1 no on the coast ...a fish town ...but they were furriers
My Danish great aunts and uncles had some of the hugest noses and biggest ears I’ve ever seen. When they traveled they packed a picnic basket and stoped for a picnic. We use to say, They arrived wearing a crisp new white shirt and a twenty dollar bill and neither were charged while they were here.
a beautiful lady
Cant hear you. Volume way too low.
If you just turn the volume all the way up on an 8 year old I phone I can hear her, makes me really pay attention that much more. These ppl who were in their 30s during ww2 are long gone and I’m happy this exists. I’ll try to see if I can fix the sound but re uploading it will most likely be a problem…
@@ssherrierable
@@ilonameszaros3253 yeah i loudened it on spot boost but I can’t upload it to my channel. Try spot boost audio
@@ssherrierable I turned my phone audio all the way up before I posted.
Swedish and Danish are Germanic languages, but Finish is Asian.
No wonder she had problems to learn Finnish.
It is Uralic language- same family languages Hungarian
Finnish is not ‘an Asian language’. It’s an Finnougric language which languages are mostly spoken in Europe but also in some parts of Siberia.
born liars
'Mercer', that's a jewish name ❤ Shalom
@@imalrockme I H8T my own race. How long would it take to bake that many pizzas with just a handful of ovens? Fn liars...
@@jackmercer4244 Put yourself in the oven and wait, I dunno.
