Albertos Beraha's student ID

Report an issue

This is my student ID from the Polytechnic University of Athens, issued in 1947.

After the war we stayed in a house on Solonos Street for a few years.

We didn't have any money left, I got admitted to university and had to study at that same kitchen table after dinner; imagine that.

But it was alright, as I had to go to the army after two years as a student, everyone had to go for three years.

My mother preserved this student ID, otherwise I would have thrown it away, I guess.
