Summary:

A typewritten and bound copy of the authors' testimony, presented to them by Yad Vashem. Moshe Smolar, who was born in 1907 in Korzec (in the region of Volhynia) and was a member of Hashomer Hatzair, became a teacher in Brisk (now Brest, Belarus) in 1937. Describes the German occupation of Brisk in June 1941, followed by a massacre of 5,000 Jewish men; life in the ghetto, including activities of the Judenrat; and the liquidation of the ghetto in October 1942. Smolar worked for one of the resistance groups in the ghetto; they concentrated on arranging escapes to partisans in the forest, but they were generally unsuccessful. Smolar hid in a bunker during the liquidation and then in the home of a non-Jewish friend. Under a false identity, he entered a camp of Russian POWs and was sent to work on farms in Wenig-Walditz, Germany, where he remained until the liberation. He emigrated to Israel in 1949 with his wife, whose testimony appears on pp. 85-90. Sara Smolar was born in Brisk, escaped from the ghetto, and hid with various families.
