Description

The man who broke into
Auschwitz. When he was captured in France in 1940 Sergeant-Major Charles
Coward launched his own private war against the Germans (although he was
being held as a prisoner-of-war). For several years he was the most
incredible amateur espionage and sabotage agent of World War Two, opposing
the Nazis while sending back vital information to England. He escaped from
captivity nine times and was, eventually, sent to Auschwitz III (a labour
camp just five miles from Auschwitz II, the extermination camp). He carried
guns and dynamite for the Polish underground movement, traded in dead bodies
(by swapping the corpses of dead prisoners for Jewish prisoners, allowing the
prisoners to escape) and, finally, he smuggled himself into Auschwitz where
he witnessed the full horrors of the extermination camp. This is one of the
most heroic and extraordinary stories of World War Two. Charles Coward fought
the might of the Nazi army and won, his courage is testament to the
indomitable human spirit facing overwhelming odds. At the Nuremberg War
Crimes Trials Coward's testimony was sensational, allowing over 2,000
Auschwitz survivors to file lawsuits for compensations against their former
oppressors.
