Perez arrived at Auschwitz on October 10, 1943 as part of "Convoy 60" a group of 1000 prisoners shipped from Drancy, France. While at Auschwitz, Perez was forced to participate in boxing matches for the amusement of his Nazi guards. By 1945, Perez was only one of the 31 survivors of the original 1000. In March 1945 the Auschwitz Camp was being evacuated. Reportedly, Perez was shot and killed during the ensuing "Death March."
