I managed to live through and survive from a most incredible period of time in the History of the World. That was during the Rise, Fall and Aftermath of the Hitler Regime and World War II. 1925 up until the present time. endure, I would have deemed him insane. I had a beautiful childhood and was raised in an upscalem German home. Later on, all that was meaningless to me and all that was important was to somehow survive and stay alive. Somehow I overcame the many cruel obstacles and unbearable odds that were set before me.
