Our mission is to read Holocaust literature (fiction and nonfiction) to enhance our commemoration and knowledge.

In “X Troop: The Secret Jewish Commandos of World War II,” Leah Garrett unearths the extraordinary and largely untold story of a daring band of Jewish refugees who fled Nazi-occupied Europe only to return as elite commandos fighting for Britain against Hitler’s war machine. This compelling narrative not only details their rigorous training and perilous missions but also delves into the personal bravery and resilience that defined these unsung heroes. Garrett’s meticulous research and vivid storytelling bring to light the multifaceted human experiences and ethical complexities that shaped their journey, making this a must-read for anyone seeking to uncover the hidden layers of history and the indomitable spirit of those who defied tyranny.
