Unsung Hero Ceil Weinstein

Through a lucky twist of fate, a Russian immigrant's son becomes a liberator, rather than a victim, of a Nazi concentration camp. In this biography, his daughter reveals startling discoveries of heroism from his unspoken past as an American medical officer who, in one week, rescued 100 prisoners who were just days from death. This story traces the arc of her father's life in light of his exemplary service as a battalion surgeon in World War II. The heart of the story includes his shocking experience at Dachau Concentration Camp and Lebenau Prison during the final days of the war.
