Chil (Enrique) Meyer Rajchman a.k.a. Henryk Reichman, nom de guerre Henryk Ruminowski (June 14, 1914 – May 7, 2004) was one of about 70 Jewish prisoners who survived the Holocaust after participating in the 1943 revolt at the Treblinka extermination camp in Poland. After participating in the Warsaw resistance, he was liberated by the Soviet Union. After the war, in which he lost all his family but one brother, Rajchman married and soon emigrated from Poland, first to France and then to Montevideo, Uruguay, where the couple became citizens. There he was active in the Jewish community and helped establish the Museum of the Holocaust and the Holocaust Memorial, both in Montevideo.
