"Burdeski died today"

WW II vet held in Nazi slave camp breaks silence: 'Let it be known'

Anthony Acevedo thumbs through the worn, yellowed pages of his diary emblazoned with the words "A Wartime Log" on its cover. It's a catalog of deaths and atrocities he says were carried out on U.S. soldiers held by Nazis at a slave labor camp during World War II -- a largely forgotten legacy of the war.


Comment: Worthwhile read on Veterans Day!
