If a person was not in a concentration camp or not even in europe during most of the war a holocaust survivor?
refugee, not survivor
I think if someone lived in war torn Europe during some part of the war, however long or short, and managed to escape early on, then yes, I believe they would be considered a survivor (of the war). Being alive during that generation but in an entirely different location for the complete duration of the war would not make one a survivor.
Maybe one of the kind mods would like to change the title to “Are they survivors?”
As long as they stopped surviving and started living…
Who the heck cares? Why are you trying to label (and therefore judge) what someone went through. They had an experience. You should respect them just as much as you respect any elder. This thread is inane and offensive.
