Your supporting photos make a terrific story of Gunter, who appears to be no more that age 16. His surname ends with "kowski" I think which suggests a Polish family name. My effort at translating the other words around "Kleingärtner" makes this out as a special travel document for Gunter to reach a family allotment or "small garden". We can only wonder what hardships he and his family might suffer in the next few years after 1941.Mike Brubakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13065245846262417519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1050717887740211904.post-64576914112201461982014-06-13T21:27:15.885+01:002014-06-13T21:27:15.885+01:00Looking at the picture of the station today so att...Looking at the picture of the station today so attractive and quiet, I wonder if it is haunted by its dark past. Do people think about the horror? Or do they just accept that this is a practical use for today? Here in the Southern United States, plantations are open for tours, and that bothers some people who remind us that these plantations were built on the backs of slaves. However, this is our history.
