Abstract:
Brief family background, describes his home in Vienna, and early recollections as a kid (he remembers political incidences during 1934). His father had a business partner who turned out to be an illegal Nazi. They were friendly with each other which helped the family after the Anschluss when it became obvious someone was protecting them - they were warned that his father was about to be arrested, and their property was not looted. The next chapter covers his emigration to Palestine, life in the Kibbutz, his first job, and the Jewish brigade. The last page covers his student time in the US, when he met and married his wife Miriam Oppenheimer.
