In the autumn of 1944, as World War II raged across Europe, a moment of extraordinary humanity occurred in the Dutch village of Goirle. On 6 October 1944, just three days after his eighteenth birthday, Karl-Heinz Rosch saved two Dutch kids from certain death. Yet, this act of courage would remain largely unknown for more than sixty years because Rosch was a German soldier in the Wehrmacht—an enemy in an occupied land.
