Avogosh, Abraham
Abraham, the son of Sarah and Samuel, was born on July 10, 1928 in Romania, in the city of Ditrau, in the northern Transylvania region. Like most of the Jews in the region, his parents were orthodox Orthodox, and Abraham received a religious and general education. After graduating from elementary school he studied tailoring, and at the beginning of World War II he already worked in his profession. In the summer of 1940, the Second Treaty of Vienna was imposed on Romania, following which the northern Transylvania was taken and transferred to Hungary. In 1938, Hungary had already enacted anti-Jewish laws, similar to the Nuremberg Laws, and decrees were also applied to the Jews of Ditrau: basic civil rights were revoked and they suffered economic and social discrimination. From the summer of 1939, Jewish men were taken to the Munkaszolgalat (Labor Service) of the Hungarian army, many of whom perished. In May 1944 deportations from Mediterra to Auschwitz began. Among the deportees were Avraham’s parents, who perished in the extermination camp. Abraham survived the Holocaust. He was sent to a concentration camp in Germany, where he saw the end of the war. From the day of his liberation until 1948, he was in a DP camp in Germany, where he joined the ultra-Orthodox kibbutz of “Poalei Agudat Israel”. He continued to work in the tailoring profession, waiting for the moment when he could immigrate to the Land of Israel and live an agricultural life based on the spirit of the Torah. His ambition was realized in 1948, shortly after the establishment of the State of Israel, when Abraham arrived in Israel with Agudath Israel through France on the Tati Panama. As soon as he arrived, at the beginning of July 1948, he joined the Haganah and served in the Negev. After being wounded, he spent a period of time in the hospital in Kfar Bilu, where the doctor recommended that he be released from the army, but he refused, insisting that they leave him in service until the victory came in. On the 22nd of December, 1948. He was twenty years old. Abraham was laid to rest in the military cemetery in Nahalat Yitzhak. This hero is a “last scion”.
