I have written about this memory before, in response to a post on the Washington Post and The Telegraph UK. Twenty-five plus years ago I attended a Unitarian service in Duluth Minnesota. During that service, two men who served in the US army wanted to bear witness to what they had seen at a concentration camp that they had entered on the same day. Neither man new each other at that time but wanted to say that the news reports about the deaths, piled bodies and starvation were true. It was reality. They had seen it. Their testimony was a response to allegations at the time (principally by Iran) that the holocaust stories were untrue.
The witnesses will, all, will soon be gone. New fools will rule.
I will not forget. I believed these men at the Unitarian service then and do so now.
