The Hungarian authorities considered these men unworthy of bearing weapons, yet they demanded they take part fully in the "blood sacrifice" that was the war against Stalin and his forces. Some 80% of the Jewish forced laborers never returned home. They fell prey to battle, starvation, disease, and grinding labor, aggravated immensely by brutality and even outright murder at the hands of the Hungarian soldiers responsible for them; and with supreme irony, not a few who thought they had escaped this hell by surrendering to the Soviets succumbed to the wretched conditions of captivity. This study of the Hungarian Jewish Labor Service men on the Eastern Front constitutes a unique and invaluable chapter in the mosaic of Holocaust history. It builds on the earlier and seminal publications by the dean of Hungarian Holocaust research Professor Randolph Braham and the groundbreaking Hungarian scholar, the late Elek Karsai. In this unique monograph, Dr. Robert Rozett focuses on the laborers themselves, presenting the panoply of their experiences at eye~level. The laborers' personal accounts speak powerfully to every Jewish family that lived under Hungarian rule during the Holocaust years, because it is their own personal story. But it is not one to be kept in the family alone, since it is profoundly relevant to all people. It epitomizes gratuitous cruelty punctuated by rare flickers of kindness; it evokes scenes of men closely guarding embers of human dignity amidst a raging sea of humiliation, pain, and death; and it highlights the unrestrained cruelty of one group of human beings toward another that shared their language and culture, but were scions of a different religious group and thus, ultimately, shared a very different fate.…
