ОписаниеThis is document donated by Holocaust suvivor Kuba Enoch. It was issued by the ORT in Switzerland, an international Jewish organisation involved in providing education and vocational tranining opportunities; the ORT was actively invovled with young Buchenwald survivors following liberation. The document confirms that Kuba attended a mechanic training school from 29.4.1927 to 1.8.1948 as an apprentice; it also states that they would like him to have the opportunity to complete his apprenticeship which is interrupted by his emigration to Australia.
Kuba was born in Krakow, Poland 1926. He was 13 years old when the war began; soon after, he and his family were rounded up into Krakow ghetto. When it was liquidated in 1943, Kuba's younger brother was removed and his parents were sent to Plaszow concentration camp. Hoping to locate his mother, Kuba volunteered to go on the next transport. He was sent to Ostrowiec, Aushwitz-Birkenau and was eventually moved to Buna camp where he remained until it was evacuated. Kuba was then marched to Buchenwald. Throughout his ordeal he was never reunited with his mother.
Following liberation by U.S forces, Kuba was sent by the Red Cross to recover in Switzerland. He arrived in Australia in 1948.
