Laureen Nussbaum,Karen Kirtley

* Of the roughly 140,000 Jews who lived in the Netherlands when the country was invaded by Hitler’s troops, 108,000 were deported to the concentration camps. Only 5,000 of them survived the horrors.

* Hans Calmeyer saved at least 3,700 Jews by Aryanizing them and deleting them from the deportation lists.

* The registry for survivors of Holocaust Survivors currently contains the names of over 195,000 survivors and family members and is adding more every day.

* Between 1945 and 1952, 137,450 Jewish refugees settled in the United States.
