Berga Soliders of Another War
Posted: May 28th 2003, 9:40 am
Hey all,
For those of you with access to PBS there is a great documentary on tonight called Berga: Soliders of Another War.
This chronicles the events of American Soliders who surrendered to German forces at the Battle of the Bulge. The soliders were asked to distinguish who were Jewish and who were not. The soliders refused. Over two hundred were selected as being "Jewish" and sent to Berga slave labor camp. Most of those selected were not Jewish.
