Cas Bieberstein stood ready to die, but not without a fight.  Forced out of his home and into the Warsaw ghettos at the start of World War II, Cas Bieberstein became a resistance fighter by the age of 10.  What is particularly striking is the mindset he developed in the raw world.  He expected that he would die, but not without a fight.   He worked building weapons and explosives for the enemy, but intentionally made most of them inoperable.  He worked as a sharpshooter, was sent to concentration camps and managed to escape to the U.S.  He lived his life quietly for many years, only opening up to tell of his past in his most senior years.  The story came to light when two distant cousins realized their genealogical connection and began to talk.  The story is documented in their book "Not Without a Fight" and an award winning documentary short.  More documentaries are planned in their series, and we may see more of this story as a feature film.
