Sara Ginaite was a young Jewish
woman who was imprisoned in the
Kovno ghetto (Lithuania) in 1941
by the Nazis, where she joined
the Anti-Fascist Fighting Organization
(AFO) in 1942. She and 11 other Jewish
fighters escaped and joined Russian
partisans in the Rudninkai Forest.
One of her assignments was to return
to the ghetto to bring out more young
people. In July 1944 she participated
in the liberation of Vilnius and Kovno
where 90 per cent of the Jewish
population had been killed by the
Nazis and their collaborators.
