RE: [Cz-L] Re: dates in czernowitz history.

Thanks Iosif , for the accurate information.

 This is what my father wrote in his notebook ( I hold it in my hands) on
March 31,1944.

  He was living in a kolchoz 1,400 km east-of-Czernowitz , not far from
Stalingrad:

" Yesterday, March, 30th at 8.00PM, the Moscow-Radio announced that the Red
Army conquered and freed the town of Czernowitz"

Regards,
Irene

 Mimi,

in the morning of March 28 several Soviet army units (40th, 45th and 64th
armoured brigades and 24th infantry division) crossed the Prut west of
Czernowitz (in Alt-Mamaesti and Glinytsa) and by the evening of that day
surrounded the city and took positions in some suburbs.
However, German and Romanian troops (infantry battalion, several tanks and
artillery units) remained in town overnight. In the morning of March 29
Soviet units started moving towards the center of the city from all
directions, with scattered firefights near the train station, in Rogatka and
several other places. By 10 am the first units reached Ringplatz. March 29
has been celebrated as the liberation day, it is also the name of the street
(former Atlasgasse).

Iosif
