Workday


Seligenstadt, Germany, Spring 1946. My Mom and a friend stop for a photograph on the DP camp property. The friend wears an UNRRA uniform.

Thank you for sharing your memories and photos (espevcially of Selingenstadt) where my family lived in at the DP camp at abouit the same time you did.

Thank you for sharing your Dad's identity! Did your Dad attend medical school in Erlangen? Perhaps he and my Mom knew each other there.

Hello, Irene! Kazys Mogenis is my grandfather (and Algimantas, who commented above, is my uncle). I'm in the process of putting a memoir of my mother, Aldona Mogenis Walker, into book form (just for private publication for the family -- not for sale), and I was wondering if I could add this photo to it? We would give you full credit, of course!
