My brother Josef left in November 1941 on the second transport to Terezin, AK2, or 'Arbeitskommando' [German for 'labor battalion']. From that time on we didn't have any news of him, because the men from AK1 and AK2 weren't allowed to write home. When someone wrote home, they were shot. I, along with my parents, went on the transport in April 1942. The assembly point in Holesovice, by the Veletrzni Palace, where we waited for about three days for the train to Terezin, was horrible.
