    I saw this when it was originally broadcast. He's so matter-of-fact and humble about all of it. At the time of his rescue actions, the world had no idea of what was to come.

    I hadn't seen this...thank you...he's still alive at 105?! Wow! If only there were more heroes, like him during that time...so sad about all the other innocent children who didn't get the chance of escape.

    Ron, I didn't realize you had met him. Props to you for that.
