RE: [Cz-L] Czernowitz Ghetto Map

Leo & Marianne,

Thank you so much for your map and the additional explanation. It's just great. During my upcoming journey to Czernowitz I'll do my very best to add a GPS tracking, pictures, etc.

Your contribution, as well as those of Mimi, Peter and Hardy are essential for such a project.

Thank you so much indeed!
