Description: Today, the story of Holocaust survivor Walter Plywaski. He's 86 years old and lives in Boulder -- now. His happy childhood in Poland was turned upside down the day his father's friends turned on the family and ordered them into a ghetto: "Here we were in the stinkiest, oldest, rottenest, barbed-wire surrounded environment with not enough food, not enough education, not enough of anything." Then, it was onto the camps. Plywaski made it out Auschwitz and eventually made it to the U.S. by stowing away on a ship. He tells us his story.
