In 1939, my father was an attorney in Prague when Hitler arrived. He escaped by traveling through Italy, eventually finding refuge on a Turkish coal freighter along with hundreds of other Jewish refugees. The freighter took them to Haifa where they were released to the British. My father joined the Free Czech Army under the British, and fought for them for nearly five years. While on leave in London, he met my mother who was a German refugee. He lost his entire family in Theresienstadt. When the war concluded he returned to his home in Svetla Nad Sazavou. My parents emigrated to Canada in 1946.
