Description

Eighty years after World War II, October 7 has reopened fears many thought were long behind us. On this ILTV Podcast, author and journalist Aron Heller discusses the story behind his new book, Zaidy’s Band, an 11-year journey uncovering the untold legacy of 1.5 million Jewish soldiers who fought in the Allied armies. Heller shares how his grandfather’s silence, trauma, and eventual openness reshaped his understanding of Jewish resilience, and why those lessons matter now more than ever.
