Andreas Kary was less fortunate; after his arrest he was sent to the infamous Dachau concentration camp. He survived a 10 month stay and was released in April 1939, when he could produce an American immigration visa.. -
..In one way or another, the Kary family managed to get an Italian visa. Peter and Hertha Langer with their little daughter Susi received an Australian visa and intended to stay there for good.
