Seventy-five years ago, the most famous act of armed Jewish resistance during the Holocaust occurred in the Warsaw ghetto. In the spring of 1943, 750 ghetto fighters fought the Nazis for nearly a month. Simcha Rotem was one of the fighters who, at 93 years old, is the last remaining fighter of the uprising still with us today.
