In 1945 the Jews started leaving Czernowitz.
By 1946 almost all were gone.
They would have gone sooner and faster but for the Soviet
regulations .
And the Soviets saved our lives - no doubt.
The Jews fled as from the bubonic plague.
Why so ?
Many reasons - a post war Czernowitzer jew wouldnt be asked
such a question.
It wasnt if you go but when.
We waited for over a year to get the Propuska.
Everyday you could see Army GMC trucks loading up jewish
families for the one way drive to Tereblecea border crossing.
An end of a period.
