After finishing 7 classes in the Russian secondary school I entered Kiev shoemaking college in 1948. Anti-Semitism began after the war and I and other Jewish children faced it at school. I can’t think of any specific case of anti-Semitism, but they were abuses like “zhydy didn’t fight, they were in Tashkent”. When I heard it, I, that lost my father, beat that boy so hard that nobody ever abused me again. I was a strong guy and could stand for myself.
