When possible I enjoy using primary documents as they bring history alive, but it is even better when one gets a short video like the great one above. It shows two elderly gentlemen, one who was hidden by the other during WWII for being Jewish. Perhaps since my own grandfather saved 200 Jews in Czechoslovakia from the Germans, I feel somewhat moved by the end of the video. It would make a nice addition to your teaching WWII.
