This year is the eightieth anniversary of the outbreak of the
Second World War. In that year, Lizzy Schwarz was a teenage Jew
enjoying life in Boskovice, Czechoslovakia. Far to the east in
Poland, teenage Jerzy Dyszkiewicz had recently qualified as an
Officer Cadet in the Polish Army. During the war, Lizzy and her
family were interned in Nazi concentration camps. Lizzy's mother
died from ill health brought on by cruel treatment, her sister and
father later died at the Auschwitz death camp. Lizzy however
miraculously survived three of those horrendous camps. In September
1939, Jerzy's unit was moving west to meet the invading Germans
when they were captured by the Soviet Army advancing east. They
were handed over to the Germans and sent to a series of POW camps
to work. In 1942, Jerzy and three close comrades escaped from a
camp near the Belgian border and, surviving many close shaves,
finally made it to England. After the war Lizzy and Jerzy
coincidentally met and later married in London on 17th September
1955. This is their incredible story of a double escape from Nazis
with an ultimate happy ending.
