Two Items of Holocaust and Heroism of a Holocaust Survivor who had Survived the Gas Chambers of Auschwitz (!), Chana Tentzer - 1947
A. A one-way military exit permit for leaving Germany, stamped by the stamp of the Martial Law in Germany, of the Border Inspection of Italy and of the British Mandate for Palestine. 1947. Rare.
The visa is signed by the German consulate, confirming that Chana Tentzer can leave Germany.
On the first page, Chana's picture.
Chana immigrated to Israel with a group of Aliyat Ha'Noar.
B. Very large picture of the Auschwitz camp with a personal dedication to Chana Tentzer, "Eshet Edut" of the Israeli Air Force.
Chana accompanied dozens of journeys of IDF soldiers to Poland. Among others, she accompanied a delegation of the Israeli Air Force to Poland in 2003 and the members of the delegation gave her the picture.
The picture depicts the railroad track at the entrance to Auschwitz and beside it the touching dedication: "You fought there for us and for the Jewish nation … we promise to protect our country on your behalf … Never again!"
Chana Tentzer (1930-2015) was the only survivor of her family. She experienced many miracles during the Holocaust, among them was when she was put in the gas chambers and a white powder (Cyclone B) was scattered on her yet due to a technical problem she was taken out of the chamber.
Condition: Very Good.
