In 1944, after the Red Army

swept back into Romania, Dr.
Nesher resumed his studies at the
University in Chernowitz. But de-
ciding that his future lay with the
DPs and with Palestine, he made
his way to the American military
zone of Germany and pitched into
the work of organizing the survi-
vors. In this capacity, he worked
closely with the late Mrs. Eleanor
Roosevelt.
As fighting raged in Israel, he
arrived in the newborn state, to-

gee. Both immediately joined the
armed forces. He remained in the
army until 1950, pioneering in the
task of building and expanding the
army's educational system.

labor as an assistant in economic
affairs.
