Scope & content
1 page, double-sided. Form has been left blank on verso. Folded once vertically and once horizonally. Document is a transportation identification card for Polish labourers entering Germany. Document is for Karol Barszczy?ski, and lists the date of his recruitment as August 10, 1942. He is to report back the next morning, at 8:00 on August 11, 1942, to be sent to Germany as an agricultural worker. He is reminded to bring his identity papers, sturdy shoes, and food for 2 days. Narrative: The donor, Aba Beer, under the false identity of Karol Stefan Barszczy?ski, worked in Eastern Prussia from 1942-1944 as a Polish forced laborer. This allowed him to escape Nazi-occupied Lwów during the 'Great Aktion' in the ghetto, when between 50 000 and 60 000 Jews were killed or deported to Be??ec. Aba was born in 1922 in Bielsko, Poland. In 1939, he moved east with his parents and sister, settling in Przemy?l. In the summer of 1942, he was included on a transport of 1000 Jews to work as slave labourers in the Janowska concentration camp, near Lviv. He escaped and pretending to be Polish, volunteered to go to Germany as a labourer. He worked in a restaurant in East Prussia until January 1944, when he was arrested for not wearing his badge. He was imprisoned in a castle in Ragnit, and then interned in a prisoner-of-war camp for Russian soldiers. He escaped the camp, joined the Polish partisans as a member of the Home Army (Armia Krajowa), and was liberated in Hela, May 1945.
