Approximately six million European Jews were killed during the Holocaust during World War II. Many of the European Jews who survived the persecution and death camps had nowhere to go after V-E Day, May 8, 1945. Not only had Europe been practically destroyed but many survivors did not want to return to their pre-war homes in Poland or Germany. Jews became Displaced Persons (also known as DPs) and spent time in helter-skelter camps, some of which were located at former concentration camps. The preferred migration destination for almost all survivors of the genocide was a Jewish homeland in Palestine. That dream eventually came true for many.

Some went Palestine/Israel. Others scattered all over the globe to places like Canada, the US and South America. A few went to what had been their pre-war homes.

Initially, most of them had to go to Displaced Persons' (DP) Camps. From there, many migrated to the US and Israel.
