Ruth Cohen was born in Munkacs, Czechoslovakia, in 1930. She and her family were forced into a ghetto and later deported to Auschwitz. Ruth and her sister Teresa were liberated by the United States Army in early 1945.
Ruth survived.

God bless Ruth Cohen and so glad she survived.
However, unless she was moved to another camp it was the Russians who liberated Auschwitz.

Jewish ghetto is amazing to visit there. They’ve preserved much of the history.

Ruth, I'm glad you made it out. I wish your sister had been able to make it too. Hope the rest of your life made up for Auschwitz. May your children and their children continue to tell your story.

The first American general killed in WW2, was the grandson of Nathan Bedford Forrest, shot down over Europe bombing NAZI targets.
