Diaries
Reina Spiegel: September 10, 1939
Oh, God! My God! We’ve been on the road for three days now. Przemysl was attacked. We had to flee. The three of us escaped: me, Ariana and Grandpa. We left the burning city in the middle of the night on foot, carrying our bags. Granny stayed behind. Lord, please protect her. We heard on the road that Przemysl was being destroyed.
—Renia Spiegel, civilian (diary)

Had another attack of pain in side and back, going mad with it. Temperature risen. Put in another ward and received Morphine injection to kill the pain, cannot operate yet.
—George Beck,1st Battalion The Duke of Wellington's Regiment, prisoner of war (diary)
