The most terrible and painful times of all came when Cato and other neighbor children were invited to a sumptuous dinner party and then tricked by the Germans into being taken by boat and train to the On the day scheduled for remem berinf the awful atory known as the Holocaust, students at Altamont High and in the upper grades at Altamont Elementary heard some ofthe harrowing experiences ofCato Jaramillo. Mrs. Jaramillo was just when war came to her 9 years-ol-d home country of Holland, with the occupation of the country by German military troops. She recounted the history of Adolf Hitler's aim to rule the world, which was the cause of the Holocaust The Holocaust was the systemmurder ofJews atic, and other minorities by the, Naiis during World War U This resulted in killing about 6 million Jews, along with others whom Hitler considered racially inferior or politically dangerous. These in- beets--anythi- infamous concentration camp state-sponsor- (1939-1945- ). cluded Germans who were physically handicapped or mentally retarded. Gypsies, Slavs, homosexuals, Jehovah's Witnesses, priests and ministers, members of labor unions, and Communists or other political opponents. Historians estimate that perhaps as many as 11 million people were killed, including the Jews. Mrs. Jaramillo recounted the painful experiences afhaving to steal food in order to stay alive, when, following the German occupation, families were rationed to a half loaf known as Nordhausen. Befriended there by s young teen-ag- e boy named Martin, she was advised to eat whatever food was offered, even though it might be moldy bread and soup with maggots. The maggots provided some protein, which was life sustaining. To this day Mis. Jaramillo has been able to maintain contact with Martin, who now resides in Poland. She has published the account of her wartime experiences in a book. Too Stubborn to Die. She hopes that by sharing these dreadful but real experiences with audiences of today she can do her part in seeing that they will not be repeated. The awful reports of "ethnic cleansing" in Kosovo and other places remind us that there are still misguided leaden who might cause such happening to be repeated.
