“German soldiers shaved off half of my 85-year-old orthodox grandfather’s beard. My father went every morning to get our ration of milk. Like the others, he carried a huge pot to bring it home. One day, the Germans put the pots over their heads like a hat and made them walk around the camp; many tripped; some were injured.
