Mem and Heit
The Netherlands (or Holland) was invaded by the forces of Hitler in 1940. Their occupation lasted 5 years, and thousands of Jews were rounded up and transported to Hitler's concentration camps. Seventy percent of the Jewish population in Holland perished in the Nazi concentration camps.
Beside the German occupiers, Dutch sympathisers for the Nazi's, made life difficult for those who resisted the occupation. These were know as 'verraaiers' or traitors, and were feared as much as the occupiers.
For the last 18 months of the World War my parents hid a Jewish family. A father, mother and their two young children.
Their story reads just like that, a story, but in all earnesty this story entails so much more then an ordinary 'adventure'. It was a story of life and death. Not only for the Jewish family, but also for my parents. Any other outcome and there would not have been an 'I', and thus therefore no story to tell.
It is a story of bravery, courage and above all, empathy.
Anne Franck hid in a cupboard, the family Franken in a cellar.
The 'book' is only a few pages long, but the story needs to be told and preserved for future generations.
