Max Gentleman and Karl Kirschner - Spearheading Myths About Friendship
Max Gentleman, a Jewish BOW in Germany, had two strikes against him. He had a pair of red triangles stitched onto his back, which identified him as the Jewish American Soldier, and he'd already tried to escape the concentration camps, twice unsuccessfully. This meant that any German Soldier who saw him escaping a third time could shoot Max dead with no questions asked. So, you might understand that when a German camp guard and an officer named Karl Kirschner, helped him crawl out under the barbed wire fence, it was a big risk for Max.
