Ben Arrives in the US and befriends Seka

Jewish Refugee Ben Alalouf tells of his arrival at an old military camp in Oswego, New York in 1944. He and his family were so relieved to at last be safe, having run for their lives across Europe with the Nazi forces on their heels. The camp was later called “Safe Haven” and for nearly a year Ben developed a friendship with a little girl called “Seka.”
