  • Part of a 150 person Jewish detail, sent to Plaszow to help build the new camp, were the Bejski brothers (Israel, (69385) Moshe (69387) and Uri (69384). Then Steven Spielberg reached out to them, as well. Madritsch transported scores of them at night to the cellars of his workshops and then over a period of time removed them to his other factories in Bochnia and Tarnow, and even later, to sanctuary through Slovakia to Hungary.

    Under the directions of SS- Obergruppenfuhrer Scherner, the gates of Ghetto 'A' were opened, and in columns of four-abreast, the Jews designated for Plaszow were marched out of the Ghetto on route to Plaszow camp.

    The Ghetto enclosure was then taken down and the area reverted to dwellings for the Polish inhabitants of Podgorze. While finalizing these papers he received terrible news. Much against his will, Dr. Gross was again used by the Nazis for selections. And now the SS and Sonderdienst units enter the gate on Plac Zgody. Rosner was contacted through his friends — the McCready family in Westfield, whose daughter is in Thom Hornish’s Advanced Placement European History class.

    “To meet the person who is portrayed on the screen, who endured so much, and who is willing to share his story is a unique moment,” Hornish said.

    Many years later the author of Schindler’s List reached out to his parents for insight on his book. Late in the afternoon, the last inhabitants of Ghetto A departed, with the exception of the OD, Gutter, and a few members of the Judenrat, who were ordered to stay until the liquidation of the Ghetto was completed.

    In order to do this, Bousco had to dope some of the smaller children with Luminal and Codeine which he had obtained from Pankiewicz, the Podgorze chemist, and put the small children into ruck-sacks. On the next day at 10 am flat top wagons loaded with corpses covered with tree branches started to arrive. Transfer from the good to the bad was allowed-- i.e., from A to B, but movement from B to A was forbidden.

    Even before the trains could leave for Birkenau, several hundred small children were shot in the entrance to one of the houses, and several hundred old people were shot in the streets. All members of the OD with their families were loaded onto trucks, driven away, and executed in Plaszow. We will walk away with not only knowledge but empowerment to change the world.”

    “He was very honest, and rather than sugar-coating, he was very straightforward,” Westfield High School senior Luke McGrory said while exiting the auditorium.
