Harold Osmond le Druillenec

Available for over a year

Belsen survivor Harold Osmond le Druillenec, a Channel Islander, recounts the appalling conditions inside the concentration camp during its final days, describing it as 'the foulest and vilest spot that ever soiled the surface of this Earth'. Inside the camp he endured starvation, thirst, filth and lack of shelter. He witnessed beatings and shootings and, of course, the fate to which most succumbed.
