John Kunz Presents about being born in a concentration camo, what struggles his family went through and what it was like once he moved to the states.
John Kunz born in 1944 in a German slave labor concentration camp where his 10 year old sister helped deliver him. In 1945 the war ended, they lived in a refugee camp for 4 years before the Catholic Parish in Fairfield, MT sponsored his family to bring them to the United States.
John explains that a little known detail is between Germany and Poland there were 800 camps. Some death camps, some prison camps and some slave camps.
