Hey everyone, i was wondering if anyone can help me with this. Im sapouse to find a survivor that is living right now currently that has survived any Genocide or war world 2, it could be anything but it has to be related to mass murder. I been searching on the net but i could never run across a survivor from any of thoughs topics that is living till this day. Can anyone help me on this?

If not then i totally understand, just move along the forums

Thanks Stevo808

there are plenty of d-day veterans and other WWII veterans around. of course, there isn't a WWII vets phonebook on the net. so you'd have to visit a retirement home or some sort of veteran gathering of some sort.

old folks love to talk about their experiences

Go to a bowling alley at 9 in the morning on a Tuesday and go to the bar, look around for an old guy, trust me he'll be there. Buy him a beer and ask him about the good old days.

Funny true story, me a my friends were working on a college paper and couldn't find any legitimate live sources for a similar project (It was a college research paper, might be more involved than what you're doing.)

We had about 15 hours left and decided to give up and go bowling and get drunk and fail out of the class with style. We go to the bar and we talk to this guy and buy him a beer. It turned out that this guy ran like his own mini-museum out of his house. Let us come over and photo copy old army records and get his interview. We got it all typed up just in time and ended up with a C+.

Moral of the story, if you can't get it done, go get drunk.
