Frank's grandmother owned a grocery store and his father made a living by buying grain from nearby farmers then selling to nearby towns. In September 1939 the Germans came to Poland and started to transfer them. In the beginning he helped his family get food, he would go out on the streets even though he wasn’t allowed and he didn't wear the Star of David. He could have easily been killed but he still did it to get his family food. ]]> 2022-03-31 16:04:01 UTC https://padlet.com/27greskoa/eiplubasbsdj1ri/wish/2123909479 27greskoa https://padlet.com/27greskoa/eiplubasbsdj1ri/wish/2123909480 He went into a forest and there were 100 Jews in an encampment, one day Polish spies gave the German information that told them where they were hiding. 22 of the 100 survived, Frank was one of the lucky Jews. Frank realized that the forest didn't offer them much protection, so they started to seek shelter in a little more secluded villages. On the way there they hid in farmers houses, while they were there the farmers gave them cooked meals.]]> 2022-03-31 16:04:01 UTC https://padlet.com/27greskoa/eiplubasbsdj1ri/wish/2123909480 27greskoa https://padlet.com/27greskoa/eiplubasbsdj1ri/wish/2123909481 A newer photo of Frank Blaichman.]]> 2022-03-31 16:04:01 UTC https://padlet.com/27greskoa/eiplubasbsdj1ri/wish/2123909481 27greskoa https://padlet.com/27greskoa/eiplubasbsdj1ri/wish/2123912735 Early in 1943 Frank and 60 other members joined forces with refugees from the town Markuszow. His group hunted down Poland spies in the area, destroyed dairy factories, telephone lines, and they ambushed German patrols. His group had helped a little with ending the Holocaust.]]> 2022-03-31 16:05:44 UTC https://padlet.com/27greskoa/eiplubasbsdj1ri/wish/2123912735 27greskoa https://padlet.com/27greskoa/eiplubasbsdj1ri/wish/2125610859 2022-04-01 15:13:32 UTC https://padlet.com/27greskoa/eiplubasbsdj1ri/wish/2125610859 27greskoa https://padlet.com/27greskoa/eiplubasbsdj1ri/wish/2125613864 2022-04-01 15:15:21 UTC https://padlet.com/27greskoa/eiplubasbsdj1ri/wish/2125613864 27greskoa https://padlet.com/27greskoa/eiplubasbsdj1ri/wish/2125678465 If he hadn't done that many Jews might have been caught trying to flee and if they didn't destroy the factories the Germans would have had food to keep fighting. They also hunted down spies, if they hadn't done that the spies could have found people hiding Jews. Frank was almost killed because a spie saw that they were hiding in the woods and told the Germans. That's why they hunted down the spies and probably killed them. Finally if his group didn't take down telephone lines the Germans would have been able to communicate to each other. ]]> 2022-04-01 15:56:22 UTC https://padlet.com/27greskoa/eiplubasbsdj1ri/wish/2125678465 27greskoa https://padlet.com/27greskoa/eiplubasbsdj1ri/wish/2125708351 This is Frank with his friends, the date is unknown.]]> 2022-04-01 16:16:09 UTC https://padlet.com/27greskoa/eiplubasbsdj1ri/wish/2125708351 27greskoa https://padlet.com/27greskoa/eiplubasbsdj1ri/wish/2125715550 Then                           Vs                         Now
