WARSAW, Poland (AP) — The son of a Holocaust survivor has fulfilled a yearslong personal mission with the unveiling of memorials to hundreds of Jews murdered by German forces during World War II. Among them were dozens of members of his father’s family. Michael Pomeranc, an American, was joined by relatives as well as the families of other Holocaust survivors to commemorate the Jews killed at the site of the former German labor camp of Adampol. In a speech, Pomeranc spoke of growing up as a child in the United States with no graves of his murdered ancestors to visit. He said he was seeking to bring closure for his late father, who lived with trauma.
