Leon Leyson's Childhood
In the Spring, the family moves to Krakow from Narewka. Father had been there for 5 years, working and saving for his family to join him.
In March, Leon and his family are forced to move into the Krakow ghetto. Hershel has chosen to go back to Narewka. They live in a small room shared with 2 other people.
Tsalig is taken away because he doesn't have a work permit and he was 17 years old.
The ghetto is liquidated and they are all moved to Plaszow work camp. Leon calls this the "innermost circle of hell."
Late in 1943, Schindler's cub-camp is open and Leon and his family are moved there. It is a seemingly better situation. Leon begins working for Schindler.
Schindler manages to save them all and brings them to his new factory.
Schindler's new factory opens in Brunnlitz. During transport, Leon and the other men are taken to Gross-Rosen concentration camp, and the women are taken to Auschwitz.
You don't belong here!
On May 8th, all of the Jews are freed. Leon and his family go back to Krakow. They are shunned still treated poorly. Riots happen all around them.
In early 1946, Leon and his family go to a displaced person's camp in Germany. Leon begins his schooling again with Dr. Neu.
U.S.A.
At the age of 19 years old, Leon finally feels what it's like to be free. He and his family move to America.
