British government honors bravery of saviors of Jews during Holocaust
March 9, 2010 - 11:54pm
Prime Minister Gordon Brown has decorated Britons who saved Jews and others from the Nazi onslaught during World War II with the new ‘Hero of the Holocaust’ medal. Brown had announced the creation of the award last year during a visit to the former Nazi death camp Auschwitz. The medal bears the inscription “in the service of humanity” and, on the backside, recognizes that the recipient’s “selfless actions preserved life in the face of persecution.”
