Interview With Barbalata Aharon
Aharon was born in a small village in Romania called “Herlau”. He lived there until he was 14-15 years old and then started the Second World War.
The way he passed through out the war:
1942- He was transferred to a city in Russia called “Rozshnize” that was occupied by the Germans. He remembers two people he worked with: Benny Rosenthal and Nattan Cuten. He was alone, and separated from his family from that day on, until the end of the war. In this place he stayed for about three years.
Later on he was transferred to “Yaakobast” to build barrels that actually was his profession. There he stayed about a year, and then moved on to “Doboroze” to do coal mines. He remembers one friend who worked with him and studied with him at school: Haimovitz Leon.
From there he was shifted to a small town in Romania, and there he worked in construction for the German army. He was there for a year. From that place he remembers: Moshe Shechter.
Aharon actually had a lot of luck during the war, he was a man with profession and for that reason the Germans used him through out the war for many different jobs.
Aharon came to Israel in 1964; here he served in the i.p.f and build a family, a house and lives until today.
The people Aharon still remembers:
Lupu Laxer, Menashe Frayer, Haim Chasho, Itzik Putnaro,Shmil Putnaro.
A special experience that he remembers:
One of his teachers that also was a prof. called Puplinger who was very known and familiar. He was from Russia and everybody respected him very much.
One night the German army took him and his family late at night to an unknown place, and no one saw them again.
