DaChau A Gentile's Turning Point
On Your
30th Wedding Anniversary
to JACK and HELEN GOLDMAN _

Denise and Michelle
A gentile employee of the
Hack Shoe Co. has submit-
ted his "recollections of
World War II to a Holocaust
oral history project at
Emory University in At-
lanta.
The man, Hubert Jolly,
•
recalls:
"You really never seem to ,
have hate for the enemy —
in fact when we took pris-
oners we talked with them-
even offered them ciga-
rettes. Our feelings were
somewhat like a football
game — just wanted to win
and get home.
"Then we have hit Camp
Dachau — box cars filled
with starved bodies, piles of
clothes designating people

chamber. A tour of the hos-

Jews Are
Leaving
Namibia
OAKLAND COUNTY COMMISSIONER
By WARREN FREEDMAN
Unlike his opponent
South West Africa (soon
to be independent as
"Namibia") came into being
as a German protectorate in
1890 and developed as an
entity under German con-
trol until 1915 when the
country was "invaded" by
the Union of South Africa
(now Republic of South Af-
rica).
It was during this early
period that the first Jews
settled in South West Africa
and established a
synagogue in 1910 at
Keetmanshoop. But, unfor-
tunately, nothing remains
today of these early begin-
nings, except for a cemetery
at Swakopmund.
After the Treaty of Ver-
sailles, South West Africa
was mandated to the Repub-
lic of South Africa.
In the 1920's and 1930's
there were as_many as 100
_Jewish families residing
in South West Africa. In
1971 the Jewish popula-
tion of South West Africa
exceeded 550 persons.
However, in recent years,
as the country strives for
independence as
Namibia only 50 German
Jewish families Continue
to reside here.
There are two synagogues
in Windhoek. There is still a
Jewish kindergarten and a
Talmud Torah. The Sam
Cohan Communal Hall is on
Lewis Botha Avenue. In
1971, three Jews served on
the Windhoek City Council.
In 1978, an Israeli film-
maker made a documentary
of this remote semi-desert
country. The film demon-
strated that although
Namibia Jewry have long
lived in peace with their fel-
low black residents, the
exodus of Jews has already
begun, along with other
white residents, as Namibia
is caught in a bitter class
struggle.

pital where you saw jars of
human organs, gave us the
idea of thousands of people
that had been murdered.
For the first time I saw real
hate in the American
soldiers.
"We wanted to get re-
venge, we found two S.S.
troopers that manned one of
the many machine gun to-
wers. As we were taking
them to the Hg. (sic), the
inmates of the Camp. took
over. This was the first time
in my life I ever saw two
people literally kicked to
death and I enjoyed it as AK
ashamed as I have to admit lip
(it allowed some of the in-
mates to get revenge.)
• "This was the turning
point of the war for us — we
now understood why we
were here and the type of
enemy we were fighting.
Our tempers were high,
hate in our hearts, now, we
just wanted Hitler!"
