Hey everyone, Ray here, and I've got your next read for you. Growing up in Sydney, Australia,

Tony Bernard had an idyllic beach-side childhood and idolized his father Henry, a respected doctor.

But his father harbored deep agonizing secrets, never talking about his war experiences,

or the concentration camp tattoo on his arm. That is, until he saw Steven Spielberg's film,

Shenler's List. Then the deep truth of his father's moral dilemma, serving as a volunteer member

of the Nazis' Get a Police, would finally come to light. The ghost tattoo, discovering the truth

of my father's Holocaust, is recognized by War Historians as one of the most factual and detailed

accounts of life as a Polish-Jewish policeman. Thomas Cannelli, author of Shenler's List, notes

this extraordinary narrative is a powerful instance of the transgenerational impact of the Holocaust.

Author Tony Bernard writes that his father Henry repeatedly survived the unthinkable

from the ghetto to camps to countless near-death experiences and made his way to the sunny shores

of Australia, but the trauma lingered just underneath the surface. The ghost tattoo is available

everywhere, books are sold.

Hello, and thank you for listening to The History of World War II podcast. Episode 438,

the longest one-day casualty list in Canadian history. Last time, the survivors in whatever form

were returning from the deep disaster. Whereas the early morning hours on the French coast

had seen the shedding of blood on British shores, the story was that the raid had surely

given the Hun's hell. That it was not a success, was a foregone conclusion, but that did not mean

that people had to learn of this. After all, public morale was a war measure that had to be

massaged in today's parlance. But how was that going to happen?

The Daily Mirror got things going with the headline Big Hun Losses in 9-hour-deep battle.

The Toronto Star was next. Canadians' spearhead battle at Diepp helped smash Nazi opposition.
