Their bunker was covered in snow so it was difficult to notice but it was eventually discovered. The Bilecki family were able to build a new one. They would jump tree to tree so they wouldn't make footprints in the snow.]]> 2022-02-18 00:48:40 UTC https://padlet.com/s24500053/Bookmarks/wish/2054321387 s24500053 https://padlet.com/s24500053/Bookmarks/wish/2054329498 When Julian was 70 he reunited with the survivors he saved from the Podhajce ghetto. They all looked up to him and adored him for his heroic actions. He would visit them in their bunker and spend time with them, providing them with food for a year. "It meant so much," "It was like food for the soul."

Almost every Jew that was in the Podhajce ghetto were killed. If Julian hadn't helped, the 23 Jews would've been dead for certain. Julian had claimed during their reunion; "All I did was help. It is very pleasant the people remember."]]> 2022-02-18 00:58:07 UTC https://padlet.com/s24500053/Bookmarks/wish/2054334397 s24500053 https://padlet.com/s24500053/Bookmarks/wish/2054337303 2022-02-18 00:59:07 UTC https://padlet.com/s24500053/Bookmarks/wish/2054337303
