This is the first interview I have heard of a us soldier who returned to Europe and saw first hand what happened Great job by interviewer

@jodiutley7292 Год назад

This interviewer should have took over every interview as he asked intelligent, on topic, we questions. Very respectful. Thank you.

@sibert1974 8 месяцев назад

I agree. He is polite and only asks pertinent questions as opposed to many who bark out their questions like interrogators.

@Sav-ze4iz 3 года назад

The person conducting this interview, is by far the most upbeat and caring person I have heard out of all of the testimonies I have listened to so far. The interviewer shared giggles, sighs & gasps. And although there was a bit of construction in the beginning, I was delighted to not hear a single phone go off & interrupt.

@1neAdam12 10 месяцев назад

Interesting though how we never hear of the Judeo-Bolshivik terrorism that lead up to the World Wars.

Mr. Cohn's testimony is more than as a survivor. It is an amazing journey and an American life shared by many others and unique to him. It is one of the most enjoyable testimonies of the many I have witnessed. God bless you Mr. Cohn. Your triumph is a salvation to us all!

Very professional interview. Very moving. I am ashamed that people who claimed to be Christians could do such horrible things. Anyone who has studied the Bible knows beyond a shadow of doubt that Jesus laid his life down, and the reason, no one took His life.

Wow !! Reading comments this morning, noticed your comment from 10 years ago ! I have been listening now for around 5 years. I'm sure there's still so many more to hear. So much more informative and endearing are these testimonials than most of any mind numbing programs on tv today.

@lindaturner2302 3 года назад

What a beautiful man! Thank you, Elliott, for such a thoughtful and thorough interview. You facilitated the questions in a wonderful manner. Your patience and respect for this man was so obvious. Herman will always be remembered. His remembrance of such horror and yet his resound determination and resolve never left him. What a beautiful man. I know his family is extremely proud of him! Thank you, Herman, for sharing your story with the world! May God Bless Your Family and the Jewish people!

@leslieparsons408 2 года назад

I agree! This interviewer is the best I have heard so far and I have lost count of how many testimonies of this type I have seen.

@sabreecarpenter4285 2 месяца назад

@leslieparsons408 I too have watched countless of these testimonies. So much history told as each soul tells of their struggles and triumphs through these tumultuous years. After years of testimonies, I just now have come across Herman's. Wow, what a gift to all who may be genuinely interested in such historical events. Just an amazing account. Worth the wait !

@judyfudge2458 3 года назад

I really enjoied Mr Cohn's story. It was thrilling the way his family got out, then he returned as a liberators,

Please increase the volume on the testimonial of Herman Cohen and other videos. English captions are not offered and being able to hear the speakers clearly is very important to the narration.

@sabreecarpenter4285 2 месяца назад

Agreed, just now listened this morning. Amazing pictures he has acquired. To think this atrocity happened within a decade of my birth. Unfortunately events as this are still happening throughout the world.

I gave up at the 30 min mark because that background noise was annoying the heck out of me. Why wasn’t it edited out at the time??

@lindataylor3834 2 года назад

This is a powerful testimony and account! There are pictures, videos, and so much physical evidence that these things happened. How can anyone presume to deny it?!

@1neAdam12 8 месяцев назад

I can show you a pic of a young child standing in a meadow, picking flowers, but with the correct lighting, eerie muzak and a sinister narrative, that same scene could send chills up your spine.

No, it's means "fairytales of atrocities" , to be more precise. Implicating that he made up and invented stories of atrocities.

@sabinegroe2006 4 года назад

Opinionated I call you Jennifer! 2020 we got.... go back to the atrocities committed by so many nations, even your own. Slavery is nothing else. Hitler seized power due to the aftermath of First World War and the unbearable reparations. Unreflective is opinion about an entire nation. Please listen to the testimony of Frank Schurrmann

@tundrellaCat68 4 года назад

No, they were just like you and me. Fed full of propaganda, divisive politics and just add mass poverty and it will make some bad things happen.

The hammering in the background is really irratating. It detracts from Mt Cohn's testimony.

Dreadful that the Pope did not denounce Hitler in 1933. Roman Catholic Church does not have a great history. I think Pope Francis is a little better.
