Imagine knowing you had managed to save so many lives. I bet that guy has a place assured upstairs 🙂

can't have been an easy task. how did he go about it? write lots of letters? send telegrams? how do you just hire 8 railway carriages and get the papers arranged for all the border crossings? what a man.

its more the fact that he recognised the need to do it and took it upon himself to sort it out that sticks with me - I'd love to find out more detail on the background. Its not like Oscar Schindler who employeed the people he saved - they were right under his nose. But this guy was (presumably) in the UK - maybe he was out there already for some reason?

great that he saved so many kids - doubt their parents were so lucky 🙁
