On 5/20/20, Hunter hosted this online public program as part of the Hunter@Home series.
Award-Winning Scholar, Professor and Director of Jewish Studies at Hunter College, Leah Garrett, discussed her new book project which tells the remarkable and unknown story of a group of Jewish Holocaust refugees who were trained by the British to be commandos, fighting on the front lines of many of the most crucial battles of the Second World War. These were the elite of the elite, a special forces unit that would help bring the Nazis to their knees.
