Kinderrtransport

Kindertransport was a series of rescue missions to transport Jewish children out of Germany and other Nazi controlled regions over to Great Britain. The children were transported out by way of train and ship. In a few cases, some children were brought over via plane. Once the Holocaust was over were to be sent back to their families--this didn't really happen though because so many were murdered. Most of the children never saw their family ever again. After it was all over, they moved around to Israel, the US, and others who were brought to Great Britain decided to stay there.

Priority of the Kindertransport rescue efforts were first given to children whose parents had been sent to concentration camps or were dead. Also priority was given to the homeless and orphaned children.
