New Biography of Berko Deicz

Berko Decz/Ben Deutsch was not a client of Konrad Kittl, but a witness for Lala Weiss, see the page on Vilnius. His application was processed by the Bavarian State Compensation Office, so I was able to view it easily. I have included his biography here because he is one of the few survivors of the mass murder of the Jewish inhabitants of Niemenczyn on 20 September 1941.

Samuel Halpern's biography was supplemented by the statements of the witness he named, Samuel Goldstoff.

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank the staff of the office for their kind support.
