Shlomo Berger, a fighter in the Polish forests during WWII.

Voices includes interviews with survivors of the Holocaust, stories from American soldiers who liberated the camps, and astounding stories of Jews who resisted by fighting Germans as partisans, escaped, or were hidden in Europe during WWII.
