Nazi-Hunter Wiesenthal to Be Knighted
Friday February 20, 2004
A survivor of several Nazi concentration camps, Simon Wiesenthal dedicated his life after the war to searching for Nazi perpetrators who escaped justice. To honor the 95-year old Simon Wiesenthal, the Queen of Great Britain will be awarding Wiesenthal with an honorary knighthood for his "lifetime of service to humanity." Because Wiesenthal is not British, he will not be able to use "Sir" in front of his name; instead, he may use "KBE" (Knight Commander of the British Empire) after his name.
