Website allows visitors to tour virtual Jewish resistance fighter's underground bunker

A website will allow visitors to tour a virtual "Zemlyanka", a type of underground bunker in which Jewish resistance fighters lived during World War II. “We all know what Anne Frank’s attic looks like,” said Mitch Braff, executive director of the San Francisco-based Jewish Partisan Educational Foundation, but the living conditions of partisans were much different. In the Zemlyanka depicted on the site, “there were five Jewish youth plotting to actively fight the Germans and biding their time until they could face their enemy in more favorable conditions.” Starting 1 May, visitors will be able to examine the three-dimensional bunker, including a chess board with pieces made of potatoes, guided by narration from CNN presenter Larry King. The site's address is www.jewishpartisans.org.
