<p>[QUOTE=&quot;scottishmoney, post: 1666559, member: 12789&quot;]My niece just found out very recently that her paternal grandmother was briefly detained at Terezin(Theriesenstadt) before she was sent to Ravensbruck - she was a Jewish member of the Czech resistance that only got caught because of being in the resistance.&nbsp; Ravensbruck was the absolute &quot;****&quot; camp in comparison to the model Terezin(which was largely created to be a showpiece camp for the International Red Cross).&nbsp; Her grandmother was one of the 3500 or so that were still alive when the place was liberated by the Russians in early 1945.&nbsp; She then came to America a couple of years later.&nbsp; Her grandmother is not my relation - unfortunately - because I wish I had an ancestor that was a hero of the resistance movement - so much so that she is memorialised in Yad Vashem.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
