Buergenthal  is known as one of the youngest holocaust victims to survive places like Auschwitz and Sachsenhausen, which were horrific concentration camps. The first 11 years of his life were spent under German authority being told what to do and how to do it. It is known that when the Germans were pushed out by the Soviet army in January 1945, the Germans forced the victims out by marching them; it was a long haul, people began to get tired and if they stopped they were executed. Buergenthal was one of the few children to survive the three day march to Sachenhausen, where Buergenthal and his family would soon be liberated.
