Another thing I remember is that a day or two before the Russians entered t=
he
There was a very loud explosion. At that time we lived right next to the Ca=
serna,
Which extended from Strada Transilvaniei, east to the Strada Cronicarul Nec=
ulce.
Our neighbor, Werner M?nster, thinking that the Caserna was being blown up,
Started throwing all their packed luggage out the window, and some of it
landed on his mother, who was picking crocus stamens in the garden.
The loud explosion came from the center of town, where a German or Romanian=
car,
Laden with ammunition, had run out of gas and was consequently set on fire
by the fleeing soldiers.

Right, there were 3 days of confusion, Czernowitz was a sort of
Niemandsland and in different parts of the town people had different
experiences. In the region of the university where we came back to our flat
on probably the 25th or 26th while fire broke out probably a day or so
later at the residence there was also a German soldier lying wounded on
Franzensgasse near by. No Germans or Romanians around to help him, neither
soviet soldiers.
Russian troops probably entered the town only after having surrounded i
On the 29th or 30th, a captain of the army installed himself at the town
hall, was called Mayor and started to organize things. A part of us youths
helped during a week or two.
Then things got more organized, may be to much organized.
