Re: [Cz-L] Russian Army

Serah is absolutely right:
 As war started there was panic in the town.
  Many people made rucksacks and went down
   to the station to catch a train to the East.
    Some did and came back 4 years later.
     Some did not and came back after a day.
      Some were not heard of since.
       But no organized evacuation .
