669

His lord said unto him, Well done,

Matthew 25:21

"Mr. Winton organized the rescue and passage to Britain of about 669 mostly Jewish Czechoslovakian children. These children were destined for the Nazi death camps before World War II. The operation was known as Czech Kindertransport. The peculiar and most noble turn of this story is when we find out Nicholas Winton purposefully didn’t tell anyone about Czech Kindertransport, not even his wife Grete about his rescue efforts.
How did she find out? How was the story uncovered? It’s quite interesting.
In 1988, Grete found a scrapbook from 1939 in their attic, with all the children’s photos, a complete list of names, a few letters from parents of the children to Winton and other documents.

The survivors gather together in this video to show their appreciation for Winton."
