One of my favorite parts is where Webster, who was injured and missed Bastogne, rejoins the company, stands up in the back of a truck and yells at the thousands of surrendering German soldiers "What were you thinking! You ignorant, servile scum!"

I encourage everyone to watch this film. It is the last days of the concentration camps told by people who were sent there from Hungary - a country that did not have antisemitism. One of them is Tom Lantos who was a long time US Representative for California. They tell what happened as they return to their towns in Hungary and also tour the concentration camps where they were held.

There are two US vets who were among the US liberators interviewed as well. They had no idea they were going to find what they did - they thought it was material warehouses. The videos are absolutely horrendous but a must see for anyone who doubts this horror ever existed.

We are on a slippery slope here where now there is even anger against Canadians for gods sake.
