Narrative: The Mobile-Synagogue Ambulances were intended to assist the Jewish liberated populations with their communal re-organisation. In 1945, eighteen of them were ready. They offered food, clothing, religious requisites and medical supplies. The French Ambulances operated in the whole area from Paris to Bregenz, Austria. Chaplain Robert Monheit was really involved with the Mobile-Synagogue Ambulances. He did many round-trip from base to Paris. He brought hundreds of survivors to France. He did that for about two years.
