Here is my brother Max Kleimann, photographed during his military service in the 1930s. He served in the Czechoslovak army and unfortunately went to Auschwitz concentration camp along with my father Aron Kleinmann, my sister Tonci Berkovic (nee Kleinmannova) and my brother Emil Kleinmann. They were all killed there, probably in 1942.
