Team Scott had the honor of hearing from Eugene “Yani” Halpert, a Holocaust Survivor, and listen to his story of hope and perseverance.

Eugene “Yani” Halpert, a Holocaust Survivor, describes how his family evaded capture during Holocaust Remembrance Day on Scott Air Force Base, Illinois, May 7, 2024. Halpert and his family took refuge in a cave in the Tatra Mountains until 1944 when allied Russian Forces found the bunker and escorted them to American Forces.(U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Shelby Rapert)
