As an American plane attacks above their freight train, the story captures fear, urgency, and difficult choices amid the chaos of persecution.

flatcar tossed from side toside and the wind lashed them,blowing soot intotheir eyes.The pilot had evidently decided that thetrain below was now in the right place.But first he'dgive them a
