In MEMORIAM 

The Month of January 2006 is the

60th anniversary of the

Verschleppung nach Russland 

(Deportation to the Soviet Union)

for the over 

250,000

Danube Swabians

and 

Transylvania Saxons

who were deported to the Soviet Union

in January of 1945,

of whom 85% were women and teenage girls,

and of whom 20% did not survive.

Their sacrifice will never be forgotten.
