Talk:Thomas Blatt
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I think that some of this should be mentioned, but it has no source (actually, one of my teachers is a friend of Mr. Blatt) and doesn't really fit in the article:
- Following the escape, he hid with a few other men in a hole in a Polish farmer's barn. One day, instead of food being put in the opening to the hole, the farmer put a gun down, shot them, and searched for money on them (the escapees actually had gold taken from the camp to survive on). He still has the bullet in his jaw.
- Later, in Israel, he related his story to a Holocaust survivor and expert. Because of Sobibor's secrecy and the implausability of an escape, the other man laughed at him and he stopped telling the story for a while.
He weren´t one of the leaders. In the movie he is the massengerboy. In the true story. The boys name was "Drescher" eleven year. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.208.78.7 (talk) 19:50, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
- In July 1984, Karl Frenzel was released on appeal due to a technicality. His appeal was lost on September 12, l985 and he was given a life sentence once more. As far as I recall, Frenzel remained in prison until about 1993 or 94, was released into the care of an Old peoples home and died in '98.
