	Description:		This summer marks 80 years since the end of World War II when Allied forces liberated Nazi-occupied Europe, and also began to discover the horrific scale of the Holocaust. An estimated six million Jews were systematically murdered by the Nazi regime. With the passage of time, there are fewer and fewer survivors who can tell the stories of what they witnessed and endured. Once fringe ideas of Holocaust denial are spreading. Multiple members of President Donald Trump's administration have expressed support for Nazi sympathizers and people who promote antisemitism. The stories of those who lived through the Holocaust are in danger of being forgotten. And there's a race against time to record as many as possible. In this episode, the story of a Jewish man who survived Buchenwald and an American soldier, who helped liberate the concentration camp.
