New posts at michelvanderburg.com | imichel•com | 20120731

Apple decided with the move from MobileMe to iCloud, to stop hosting client web sites. So, I moved my michelvanderburg.com site last month to WordPress for hosting. This now also allows me easy posting, and for now new posts (as well as older content from this blog here* ) will be published at michelvanderburg.com .

Update June 27, 2022 – All post from imichel.com have been republished last week on both michelvanderburg.com  and 1-memo.com . Video’s embedded in posts and missing now in this blog – because they originated from my second youtube ‘iClip’ which was archived (thus no longer available) some years ago – have been replaced with new editions in the republished posts. Further ,  problems with links no longer working , were addressed.

Transport XX to Auschwitz – trailer


Trailer of the film Transport XX to Auschwitz by Karen Lynne & Richard Bloom and Michel van der Burg. This documentary is coming soon.

During the Shoah, the Nazis, in their quest for the final solution of the Jewish question, utilized thousands of trains from Germany and the occupied countries to transport 3,000,000 Jews to the concentration and death camps.

This is the little known, true story of a most remarkable and heroic rescue attempt which occurred on April 19, 1943, the first night of Passover, at the same time that the Warsaw Ghetto uprising began, some 720 miles away.
On that night, Transport XX departed Mechelen, Belgium at 10 p.m. with 1631 Jewish men, women and children for Auschwitz II-Birkenau.

Half an hour later, it was stopped by three young Belgians armed with only 1 pistol, pliers and a hurricane lamp.
This was the only documented attack on a death train during the Shoah.
