What happened to the Jews of Bukovina was a bad dream.
But reality was even worse.
The Jews didn't foresee what was coming.
Didn't believe,
Today we face the same situation.

Hi, I read your story, every Europeean Jew , born before WW2, has a story,
more or less interesting, like a krimi.
I must correct you, the sowjet pasport for ennemies had the end number 39,
not 38...

Hi AllI was borne in 1930 and had many relatives all living inChernovitz=C2=
=A0this what I can relate:My father had a mens wear shop so:in 1940 when th=
e communists took over he lost his shop was declared an enemy of the state =
and issued a passport number 38. His employees came to our place and chose =
form his wardrobe whatever they wished. Also he had difficulties obtaining =
a job - but for a soviet jew he helped him I was reluctantly made a pioneer
=
(Scout) because my father was an enemy of the state.In 1941 the police came=
to deport us to Siberia - luckily we hid after being warned by a fellow je=
w that the police will look for us and were not taken away, but my aunt unc=
le and daughter were taken away because somebody told the authorities that =
they were opposed to the government.They died in Siberia
Than the Rumanians and Germans =C2=A0came back and we were placed in a Geht=
o and the shop was Rumanised and not returned. We were lucky to get a permi=
ssion to stay issued by the mayor of Chernovitz =C2=A0and so were 19600 oth=
ers.We were lucky to remain in Chernovitz but all my relatives were taken a=
way to Transnistria and some died there of hunger and sickness.Of course in=
Chernovitz the Munich laws were unacted with al the =C2=A0restrictions
After the conquest by the USSR of Chernovitz the soviets told my father tha=
t he is an enemy of the state with all the restrictions.
When my relatives returned from Transnistria they could not move into their=
old homes and were exposed to antisemitism by the non jewish population & =
migrated to Israel
