Yes, the Germans looked away. Not all, but most. But one thing, they smelled the putrid rancid smoke from the ovens. That would’ve never been forgotten. Both of my parents came to America in the late 30’s. My mother and her siblings tried desperately to get their parents out but to no avail. ;(

I know my mom did. She always felt guilty she didn’t do enough to save them. They sent money through the Underground to persuade the Nazis to let them go. My grandparents were older. My grandfather was a tailor. How threatening was that kind of job to Hitler?? It is one story among millions. If yoh ever get a chance to visit the Holocaust Museum in DC, it will blow your mind.

Your parents and their siblings must have suffered horribly with that responsibility and the grief. How unbearable.
