PORTRAIT - Walter Bingham
April 9, 2018 - Jerusalem, Israel - WALTER BINGHAM, 94, proudly presents a certificate awarded to him in 2017 by Guinness World Records for the oldest radio talk show host. He continues to break his own record day after day. Ahead of Israel's Holocaust Martyrs' and Heroes' Remembrance Day, Bingham speaks of his wartime experiences. Born Wolfgang Billig, Bingham was born and grew up in Germany as the Nazis were rising to power. He witnessed Nazi book burnings and severe discrimination before escaping to England on the Kindertransport. Walter enlisted in the British army, was a driver in the British Royal Army Service Corps, took part in the invasion of Normandy and was transferred to Counter Intelligence where he interviewed Nazi Foreign Minister Joachim von Ribbentrop who denied all knowledge of the Holocaust. Bingham earned the British Military Medal for bravery in the field and was awarded the French Legion d’Honneur (FOTO: DUKAS/ZUMA)
