Bz92
I was born in Breslow, Germany on April 27, 1923. My parents came from Galicia. We owned a small store of workman’s clothing. I had one older brother. Just before the outbreak of the war, my parents joined my father’s family in Tarnow. In late 1939, my parents escaped from Tarnow to east Poland. In 1942, my father and I were rounded up along with other Jewish men, loaded into cattle cars and taken to a forced labor camp. My mother and brother were both gassed in German murder vans in Belcyce. In May, 1944, my father and I were liberated by the Soviet Army. I was 90 pounds. All those that survived the Holocaust have lived in its shadow all their lives.
