Re: [Cz-L] Czernowitz on June 28, 1940 in Quick Motion!

The entry of the Soviets in 1940 ,June 28.
  A day to remember.
   A change in our lives .
     Oh, how great was our joy by meeting our liberators,
   All jewish youngsters of leftist organization were overjoyed.
     But it was a spontaneous reception and the Mosfilm camera
   team had not arrived yet.
      Soon some army politruks ( army politic attache) started driving
through the streets
   calling out the population ,distributing flowers and rehearsing a
   welcome for the camera with flower throwing and many smiles..
    They reinacted a second take-over of Czernowitz, for the news movie.
     Beautiful girls were first row , giving flowers to Soviet soldiers
     and being embraced in return.
      The politruk would pay out on the spot.
      That day we also learned the two russian words essential for survival:
       "Zavtra " - tomorrow and "Budyet"- there will be.
      When asked when is food ,water , power will be back the answer was
      always :"Zavtra budyet".
     New times arrived.

Czernowitzers...

For all of you, who haven't visited the exhibition "Cession of Bessarabia,
North of Bucovina and Herta Region, June 26 - 28, 1940 - Between
Powerlessness and Irresponsability - A Romanian Perspective" yet, I've
excerpted a 00:36 min. sequence, displaying the Soviet troops advancing to
Czernowitz on June 28, 1940, online available at our Ehpes.com Blog:

http://ehpes.com/blog1/2011/09/14/czernowitz-on-june-28-1940-in-quick-motion/

The complete exhibition, including the uncut movie (and more), is still
available at:

http://hauster.blogspot.com/2011/08/romania-1939-bukovina-bessarabia-herta.html

Any of your - or my - ancestors among the crowd, welcoming the Soviet
troops?
