Sel Hubert
Sel Hubert was born in Germany and was 10 years old when he was beaten and kicked out of school. He experienced "Kristallnacht", which took place on Nov. 9th & 10th, 1938, when the Nazis burned synagogues, vandalized Jewish homes and businesses, and the first mass arrests of Jewish men and boys took place. His home was ransacked and his father arrested and taken to Dachau concentration camp. In December 1938, he was evicted from his hometown and in July 1939 he left on a Kindertransport from Munich to England. He never saw his parents again. In England, he lived with three different families and in a hostel until Feb. 1945 at which time he immigrated to the USA. He then served in the US Air Force for one year.
Mr. Hubert's presentation covers his life in Germany under the Nazis, Kristallnacht, the Kindertransport, and life in England.
