After receiving papers, dad and Artur were sent to Cariova for about six months where several key and eventful events happened, one of which was the surrender of Germany. But to young Poles across Europe the War was far from over. Russia was exerting its influence and now occupying Polish territory. Meanwhile, General Patton's Army was in control of Western Europe, that is where dad and Artur were now headed, As for my farewell from Romania, it was actually somewhat emotional and heartfelt, Next stop is Budapest. Then Vienna, where i will backtrack and share dad's adventures before Romania. After that, I'll pick up from where he left Romania. Italy beckons.

I look forward to meeting up again and having Oana join us for a dinner at Mignon. And we can discuss a few pages from my book... It will take place in Craiova, a party following German surrender, and you will both be represented:)
