Refugee Wins Camp Miss Lippincott In Commander's Prize Center Solo Concert This Saturday Night CAMP TRE, Va.—A man who "knew" Nazi concentration camps, a religious teacher both in Ger- many and America, Pvt. Henry 0. Bernstein has been awarded the camp commander's prize for the best essay submitted in a camp contest. The camp paper's story of Pvt. Bernstein's award was headed: "Rabbi Who Knew Nazii Deems KP a Privilege." The camp commander, Maj. Gen. James E. Edmonds, was pub- lisher of the New Orleans Times- Picayune before entering service. The text of Pvt. Bernstein's essay, titled "Only Those Who Know—", follows: "Here, I am wearing a uniform. In Germany I could wear no uni- form at all. I have been digging ditches, doing K.P. and many tasks with which I have been un-1 familiar. But I am very glad to do it. When I took out my first papers to become a citizen of this country, I asked myself if there were any way in which I might show my appreciation to my new country. The Selective Service Act was passed and then came my chance. I volunteered for service in the Army. I feel that I must earn my citizenship. I know the situation in the countries of Eu- rope and I can tell you, only those who know Germany, Russia and Italy can truly appreciate the freedom in America. By thus earn- ing my right to be a citizen I hope to be able to tell others that they too, in order to breathe the free- dom of this country, must be ready to share the responsibilities as well as the pleasures of their new land."
