“During the war, ‘39 and ‘41, the defeated armies, the
Polish or the Soviet...they threw their arms and the peasants took them...I
went to these peasants as a non-Jewish...So I bought arms and had to smuggle
this to Bialystok and was not an easy thing to do...In August 1943 there
was a revolt in the ghetto. I was not in the ghetto when the revolt broke
out...and so when the ghetto was liquidated, I was... on the Aryan side...We
were six girls all together...We became the liaison officers of the partisans
in the ghetto.”
