Holocaust survivor Gerda Klein recalls the first time she met US Army officer Kurt Klein, later to become her husband, in the shack in Volary
On 20 January 1945, approximately 1000 female Jewish prisoners were evacuated from the Schlesiersee (today Sława) camp in Upper Silesia, western Poland, a region annexed to Germany. These women were forced on a death march in a southwesterly direction. On the way, the prisoners passed through other camps, and more women were added to the march.
On 5 May 1945, after covering a distance of over 800 km, the march ended in the town of Volary (German: Wallern) in Czechoslovakia, not far from the border with Germany and Austria.
Of the approximately 1,300 women who marched to Volary, some 350 survived. .

One of the most amazing stories I’ve ever heard in my life.
This is a 1st person account of a terrible time and her story is so humble and touching it touches your soul. This is history.
Gerta & Kurt Klein are amazing. Mrs. Klein's full testimony is available. You must watch. What a timeless love story. Love between a husband & wife...and love from one human to another. So proud to be an American. 🇺🇲❤🇬🇧🙏🇮🇱

That was such a sincere, heartfelt and beautiful story. It made me tear up.
God Bless her. This makes me cry with tears of hope every time I watch it.

I saw listened to her story at the Holocaust museum in DC and broke down crying
I am humbled by these survivors.
Nothing but the greatest respect for her
