Kurzfassung:
A biography of Alex Gatmon (1926-1981), born as Alexander Gutman in Będzin. Pp. 28-54 deal with the Holocaust period, when he was active in the Hanoar Hazioni youth movement. In 1942-43 he participated in underground activities, especially acquisition of weapons. In June 1943 he left Będzin, crossed into Slovakia, and from there to Hungary. In Budapest, he trained members of Zionist youth movements in resistance activities. In the beginning of 1944, he and a group of other Polish Jewish refugees from the area of Będzin moved south to the town of Mohács in an attempt to link up with Yugoslavian partisans, but the Yugoslavs did not want Jews. In Mohács, they identified a Polish Jewish collaborator and murdered him. Gutman and two others were caught and imprisoned in Pécs, where they were liberated by the Soviet Army on the day that they were to be hanged. He then went to Vienna to study at the university, while at the same time participating in hunting down Nazi war criminals and executing them. After a while, he gave up acts of revenge and joined the Etsel (Revisionist Zionist underground). In June 1948 he emigrated to Israel on the ship "Altalena". The rest of his biography appears in "Massuah" 20 (1992).
