"So my father normally did that when he came out of the war, because he had to go to war like a German, that's what everyone had to do. However, he was actually a butcher, so he was in the rear as a cook, so he actually had no direct involvement in the war... but he had to go to the war and came normally after the war and had to ask not to be deported. And he had to, because we built a house, or my parents built a house in Vchynice, so he had to buy the half again and then the mayor, some Mr. Kočí from Vchynice, he guaranteed for him that he had no problems in life, so he did not have to be departed."

"You know, I was five years old, so what I know is more what my mom used to say or how my parents talked about it, so it was the moments when these people fell down from exhaustion and no one was allowed to give them water. Because a mother, when she ran out and brought them at least a drink of water, the German would normally shoot her, because they immediately came after her with a submachine gun, right, and she was not allowed to come close, not a piece of bread, nothing. So those people were poor, so it was rough, but I can talk about it more as from the parents' story. "
