(Jerusalem Post) Joanna Paraszczuk - Half a million Soviet Jews joined the Red Army to fight against the Nazis; 40% died in battle, the highest percentage of all the USSR's ethnic groups. One and a half million Jews from all over the world fought in World War II, including 150,000 women. A quarter million of these Jewish fighters fell in battle. Most people "don't know that so many Jews stood up and fought Hitler and Nazism," says Red Army veteran Shalom Scopas, 85. IDF Brig.-Gen. (ret.) Zvi Kan-Tor has over the past decade sought to build the Museum of the Jewish Soldier in World War II near Latrun. Among those championing it is Dr. Yitzhak Arad, the former director-general of Yad Vashem. "When we talk about the Shoah, there has been an emphasis on the six million victims," he explains. "I feel it is very important to teach children that the Jewish people also have a share in the victory against Nazism." If you, a relative or friend fought against Nazism in World War II, please visit the museum website and enter the details on the museum's database. 2010-11-26 08:46:11Full Article
