Subject: [Cz-L] Leo Schwefel from Czernowitz Became Radu Comsa in...
(Bucharest - 5359 km)
Czernowitzers, dear friends,
Thanks to the introduction by my friends Roza and Leon Brumfeld from
Bucharest, I had the special privilege, to meet and to interview Holocaust
survivor and eyewitness Leo Schwefel from Czernowitz aka Radu Comsa from
Bucharest:
http://hauster.blogspot.de/2015/07/leo-schwefel-from-czernowitz-became.html
An ultra-short version of his bio until the end of World War II reads as
follows: Leo Schwefel, son of Dr. Aron Schwefel and Malka Schwefel (née
Klipper), was born on 06.12.1925 in Czernowitz. Survivors of the Czernowitz
Ghetto, exempted from the deportation to Transnistria by a Traian Popovici
permit in October 1941, Leo and his parents were listed for the second
deportation wave in June 1942. Their attempt to escape from Czernowitz with
fake IDs ended in Roman, where they were convicted and sentenced to twenty
years' imprisonment; Leo was only sixteen years old at that time. Two years
later, in 1944, they were liberated by the Red Army.
Want to learn more? Why and how did the change of name happen? Read more at
the post above and "stay tuned" for the release of the full filmed interview
with Leo Schwefel / Radu Comsa after my return home!
