Simjon Rosenfeld a survivor of the Sobibor death camp and a participant in the prisoner revolt which took place in that camp. Born in Baranowicze, Poland, in 1940 he was recruited to the Red Army. In 1941, the Germans captured him and sent him to build a labor camp in Minsk. On 20 September 1943 he was transferred to Sobibor. The Germans separated the Jewish and non-Jewish soldiers but refrained from killing the Jews as they had war prisoner status. On October 14, 1943, Rosenfeld participated in the uprising that resulted in his escape. Acting commander SS Untersturmfuehrer Niemann entered the tailor shop in which Rosenfeld worked. While Isaac Lichtman held Niemann's leg tight – seemingly in an effort to pull off his boots – Rosenfeld and Arcady Wajspaper came out of the back room and split his skull with an axe. After the war, he moved to Ukraine and then to Israel in the 1980s. Rosenfeld had two sons and five grandchildren at the time of his passing. He received a eulogy from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
