Acknowledgements
This book would not have been possible without the support of my family and friends, who encouraged me to fulfill my aunt’s wishes to share her unique pre-WWII experiences with the reading public. I am extremely grateful to my Aunt Helen who kept track of the details of her journey and preserved the photos for so many years. I consider Helen the real author of this book. I am also sincerely thankful to Sylvia Diedrich, who enthusiastically took on the task of expertly translating a letter that the Austrian soldier wrote to my aunt, after the end of WWII.
