New chapter added: Prisoner 332, Klooga, Estonia

Aunty Betty's niece, Basia Daiches z''l, may her memory be a blessing
Once again a new chapter has just been added to the weblog bringing the project research and filming phase a step closer to completion. Aunty Betty's neice, Basia Daiches, was taken from the Vilna Ghetto to a Nazi labour camp in Estonia. This page tries to reconstruct her story from the little information available, describing the camp and its conditions and relating the dramatic events leading up to the slaughter of the camp inmates on 19th September 1944. To read more please click on "Prisoner 332, Klooga, Estonia" or see the list of chapters on the right.
