THE WAR ILLUSTRATED

When I bought this copy I did not know there was an article about a 17

year old male from Ostrava region in Czechoslovakia. Hi was controlled by

the Gestapo after a cinema visit and became forced laborers for the Germens.

This article is about his unbelievable journey from Poland through the whole 

Soviet Union to the Japanese occupied parts. It took him two and a half years

to get to England to fight side by side with his fellow Czech.

He earned his living among other things as body guard to a gangster in Shanghai.
