Pfc Albert M. Cohen
Depicts How Nazis
Had to Clean Temple

- —

Pfc. Albert M. Cohen of De-
troit, who is serving with the
U. S. Seventh Army in Germany,
in a letter to his mother, Mrs.
R. Cohen, now living in Wind-
sor, describes the cleansing of
a Temple for victory services.
He writes:
"We have arranged to have the
local temple cleaned for our
services. The place was used us
the school for Hitler Jugend.
And who should have the pleas-
ure of cleaning it out but the
Storm Troopers.
"And so with the Polish slave
laborers acting as foremen, the
Storm Troopers had to clean it
out, scrub the walls till they
shined and polish the furniture
and rebuild the Ark for the
Torah.
"It was ready for use and we
held our services dedicated to
the victory of the Seventh Army
in receiving the capitulation of
the German army group oppos-
ing us. It was the first service
held there in 10 years, and I
think we woke up the neighbors
with our singing. It is a remark-
