The USS North Carolina (BB-55) My all-time favorite warship. As an elementary school student in North Carolina, I donated nickels and dimes to save this ship back in the early sixties.

Holocaust Survivor Shares Horrific Stories-- Part 4


Eva Kor continued, "We were just Dr. Mengele's guinea pigs. It made me feel like I was nothing and a nobody; a piece of meat." She said she had to develop an unbelievable will to survive and she still has the tattoo A-7063 on her arm. Her sister was given A-7064.

She, her sister and other children were rescued by the Soviet Army on January 27, 1945.

Her sister Miriam died June 6, 1993, after giving birth to three children. Kor believes that her sister's kidneys were diagnosed as the size of a child's due to the experiments Mengele carried out on her.

Kor has chosen to forgive Dr. Mengele and the Nazis, though most of the other children he experimented on haven't. A documentary was made on Eva Kor's life called "Forgiving Dr. Mengele."
