You are obviously a wonderful teacher, making me THINK about what I wrote. Knowing only what was known back then -- I would have considered doing nothing, or "botching" the operation. However, I would also look around me at the concentration camp and know that if I didn't obey "the rules", I could end up in the camp (or worse) myself. Yes, retrospect is everything, unfortunately.
Knowing only what was known back then, would you have saved his life? What about knowing what you know now?

Thank you for your kind words.
