“It was late at night, I was already asleep, and mom’s soft voice woke me up. “Dalichen, you have to get up now. It’s not morning yet.” She came and sat on the bed with me, and my father, too, said that they must leave for two weeks, as the Germans wanted, but then they would come back… The doorbell suddenly rang very loudly and long, and my father opened the door, the Grune Polizei. Three officials [Nazi police force] burst out, their boots making a loud clicking and stomping noise. He shouted all sorts of orders loudly and roughly: ‘Schnell, schnell, sonst schissen wier. [(Quick, quick, otherwise we shoot]’. I hid behind Anna and was scared, very scared.
