Escape from Sobibor
Throughout WWII, the death camp in Treblinka had an escape, inducing the Commandant in a comparable camp at Sobibor to vow (actually sabotage ) his camp would never go through the same task. But those who were captives, the Jewish laborers who had been spared from the ovens, also knew they were on borrowed time and their only hope was to flee... the only real question was how exactly to doit. On October 14, 1943, members of this camp's underground resistance succeeded in killing many of Ukrainian guards and eleven officers. Roughly 300 escaped, although most were later re-captured and killed. The escape forced the Nazis to close the passing camp, planting a woods and dismantling it.
