So important to remember them!
Yep!
I am partway trgouhh The Long Road Home, and find it very engrossing. My parents were Jewish DP’s from Poland who were in a camp at Eschwege, which I believe was in the American-occupied zone, from 1945-1949, and then immigrated to the US. There is no mention of this camp in the book. Have you come across any material on it in the course of your research?
I’m afraid not. WWII isn’t one of the periods I specialize in. Not even one of the periods I dabble in. Good luck with your search.
