Anna Halmos with Hashomer Hatzair group

This is a picture of our Hashomer Hatzair group, taken in 1939/40 Hashomer Hatzair was very important to everyone in our group of youngsters. My youngest sister Alzbeta would go there with me, and the Kamenski brothers, Pali and Lori, also came. Lori was really smart and quite talented in school. He didn't survive the camps. Except for Rosenberg Imrich, who was in Theresienstadt during World War II, all the others from our Hashomer Hatzair group were killed during the Holocaust. At the top is my youngest sister Alzbeta, underneath her is Halmos Nusi, who went with me to Auschwitz. While I was in Auschwitz, I found out that my friend from Hashomer Hatzair, Halmos Nusi, was there. Halmos came from a rather wealthy family. Her parents had divorced years ago; she was an only child, and, I would say, she was spoiled. She was sick as soon as she arrived in this hell, and was taken to see a doctor because she was complaining about a sore throat. Poor Halmos was dead even before they took the rest of her group to Birkenau, but I don't know exactly what happened. I mentioned her in my book, where I described how beaten up I was when I went to visit her in the infirmatory and forgot about going to ?Apel Platz? to report this. There is another girl on the photo, her family name was Sumanova. She was very pretty.
