An Unbroken Chain - Part Eight

An Unbroken Chain - Dr. Henry Oertelt

Chapters 9, 10, 11: This episode deals with four more links in the events that helped Henry Oertelt survive the Nazi Holocaust. Henry’s optimism and profession as a fine furniture designer helped him survive. He was now sent to another death camp, Flossenburg in Bavaria. The camp was horribly overcrowded and daily beatings of prisoners was the norm. Henry’s brother Kurt is sent to a different camp, which was devastating, but also led to another link that helped him live. He needed medical help.
