281		<h3 class="home-top">Beginning in June 1941, a wave of mass murder swept across Europe. By the end of World War II approximately 6,000,000 Jews, which included 1,500,000 children, had perished at the hands of the Nazi murderers. When the killing ended those who survived were released from the concentration camps and came out of hiding.
