[Cz-L] Teacher Gininger

I remember teacher Gininger well.
  He was a friend of Eliezer Steinbarg.
    He was our Yiddish teacher .
     He was drafted into the Red Army and was at Stalingrad .
       When he returned he told us about the Caucasian Jews .
     Until then we believed that all Jews came from an area
        in a radius of 300 km from Czernowitz.
       Then he married our chemistry teacher whose name I do not recall
       but we nicknamed her Tante Valencia for the chemical valences she
        taught us.
       I have not heard of him since.
     Hardy
