On Nov 1997,Herbert Kolb wrote :"Your question about David Katzenberge r and me. I believe, that maybe my father introduced me to Mr. Katzenb erger, or I might have known him from Nuernberg. Anyway I know he wa s in the "shoestore" in Theresienstadt. There is one thing you have to know, and probably even heard about bef ore. The Nazis used Th. as a propaganda piece for a foreign commission. Thi s shoestore was just a small store window in which some shoes were shown . Nobody in Th. could have bought any of these shoes or any others he mi ght have there. These were shoes which the Nazis had taken in the first p lace out of the suitcases of people who came to Th. If these stolen shoes w ere halfway good they were send back to Germany for the Germans. Only th e bad ones might have been given to that store. Now as even than, nobody could buy these shoes as one needed a specia l certificate for which one had to wait sometimes very long, that on e did not have any shoe left and with this and a special "Kleiderkarte", whi ch all of us also had for propaganda perposes, and a couple of the absolu te worthless Ghettokronen one was permitted to pick up a pair of shoes. T his certainly when he was lucky that there were shoes which halfway fitte t him. As far as I remember I have one of these shoe permits, but I beli eve I had to get it in the central supply place. About the people who worked for him. I bellieve, he was the only on e in the "store". In one of the barracks were shoemakers working. They repa ired them and in case some were too good, again the Nazis shipped them to G ermany. The lousy ones after being fixed might have come to the shoest ore. Now about the trip to Switzerland. On February 5th, 1945 a train ful l of people, I believe 1500 really went to Switzerland. At that time I wa s not in Th. as I was shipped away to near Berlin and was lucky to be return ed to Th. only on February 11, 1945. But I heard about this train to Switzerland. It came like that. The SS-commander made the announcement , that anybody could volunteer to be on the list to be exchanged in Switzerland. As every word the Germans said was a lie, people were ver y scared, that this again was a trick and they would be shipped to Auschwitz. Only after they were assured and really a special train cam e,not cattlecars, they hoped this was true.." _____________________________________________________
