1942, Europe. Soldiers find a boy surviving alone in the woods. They make him a member
of Hitler's army. But what no one would know for decades, he was Jewish.
Could a story so unbelievable be true?

Donald Trump's 25% tariff aimed at the auto sector went into effect at midnight Washington
time. The impact of his tariffs are now also being felt in the U.S. at ports in Southern California.
Steve Futterman reports.
Here at the Twin Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, the harsh reality of the Trump
tariffs is already being felt.
It's radical uncertainty.
Mario Cudero runs the Long Beach port.
The drop-off in traffic, he says, has been slowly increasing for the last several weeks. the the

At the White House this week, Donald Trump acknowledged the reduction in shipments while
holding out hope for some resolution.
At a certain point, I hope we're going to make a deal with China.
Those next to feel the impact could possibly be consumers.
Retail experts say American buyers could be hit with increased prices and empty shelves in the next 30 to 60 days.
Steve Futterman for CBC News at the Port of Los Angeles.
Pierre Poliev's political future is starting to become a little bit clear.
Despite growing the Conservative Party's seat count, Poliev lost his own riding of Carlton.
Now he's trying to get back into the House of Commons. Host of the House, Catherine Cullen, has a look at how long that
could take and what the wait might mean for his party. Obviously I would like to
see Mr. Poliev in the house where he belongs. Conservative MP-elect Gerard
Deltel is sounding fairly positive about the election results. His party
increased seats but one they lost belonged to leader
Pyr Polyev.
On Friday, the Conservatives revealed Polyev would run in a by-election in the Alberta
riding of Battle River Crowfoot. Damien Couric is stepping aside just days after winning
the riding with 82% of the vote. In a statement, Polyev praised Couric as selfless and said
he was accepting the offer with humility and appreciation. The Liberals could wait months to call the by-election, keeping Poliev out of the House
of Commons for as long as possible.
But Prime Minister Mark Carney says he won't delay.
I will ensure that it happens as soon as possible.
Still, there are rules and procedures to follow, and Poliev likely won't know the results of
that race until at least late June.
By then, Parliament may have gone on break until the fall. Catherine Cullen, CBC News, Ottawa.
And you can hear more of this on The House wherever you get your podcasts. With tension
increasing between Pakistan and India, Islamabad has test-fired a ballistic missile.
Video of the surface-to-surface missile was released by Pakistan's military.
The backdrop of today's launch is last week's deadly attack on tourists in India-administered
Kashmir.
26 people were killed in an ambush in Delhi and was carried out by Pakistan-based terrorist.
Islamabad denies the involvement.
Now both countries lay claim to Kashmir
and have fought over it in the past.
This latest flare-up has caused the two countries
to expel the other's diplomats and nationals
and brought relations between them
to their lowest point in years.
My fellow Australians.
CHEERING Serving as your Prime Minister is the greatest honor of my life.
Anthony Albanese addressing a crowd of supporters in Sydney after declaring victory in the federal
election in Australia.
He and his Labour Party have been re-elected with what appears to be a majority government.
Albanese is the first Australian Prime Minister to win a second consecutive three-year term
in 21 years.
He defeated the Conservative-leaning party whose leader, Peter Dutton, lost his seat
in Parliament.
Health care, housing, and the cost of living were the main issues in the campaign.
And that is your World This Hour.
