The reporter in question is working with a very nice lady [and a Holocaust survivor who lost most of her family] who runs a sort of support group for Holocaust survivors and WWII vets, as well as some other people who work with survivors. His research, it seems, focuses more on the condition in which the survivors in Israel live [i.e., embarassing poverty], and the work that is done today to support them by volunteer organizations, rather than their experiences during the Holocaust.
I'm going to point y'all at the paper in question when and if it gets published, because I don't want to look stupid if it doesn't.
