I have known a good number of Holocaust survivors. While working in the Bay Area, we had quite a few as return patients. They were mostly dying of complications of the torture they underwent in the Holocaust. I had the chance to read their charts... you would not believe what was in them. Many of them were happy to have a Gypsy taking care of them and most of them could not stand to see anyone in a white doctor's jacket or even a white uniform. Many of the ones I saw as patients had been victims of Nazi medical "experimentation". The staff was asked to not wear white doctor's jackets while tending these patients. Other staff than doctors wear these jackets. Phlebotomists and the x-ray techs sent to the units, for example. We all took them off outside the rooms. We had one who panicked when night fell and he would go into full flashbacks. When working and this fellow was in the hospital, I would make it routine to pop my head in every half hour or so all night long to let him know I was there.

I've known people who have known, but I myself have never met any... The closesest would be someone who lived through the Blitz Greig though.

My grandfather escaped Holland with his parents in time to avoid the Holocaust (every other member of his family was all killed). Both my wife's grandparents are survivors.
