Fredy was taken to the Jewish cemetery in Baisingen by his father when he was still a child. But it took him a long time to tell him about his experiences in the camps. "My father had a folder [Brieftasche] in his nightstand. When visitors came from America or Israel, he would fetch it every time. But he would send me away beforehand. "Go over there and play something." "Yes, okay." I noticed that they were black and white photos."

Fredy overheard that the adults were talking about terrible events.

"When I was seven or eight years old, I looked at the pictures and I saw dead bodies, a whole mountain."

Later, when Fredy was 16, his father told him how he had taken the pictures from an SS man when he was liberated.
