July 13, 1944

There’s another siren at 9:15. Ten minutes after we reach the shelter, bombs begin falling. We can hear that a nearby factory was hit and a fuel warehouse went up in flames. They were shooting for two consecutive hours, at 11:30 it’s over but one could also say that Munich is over. There are no trains or trams, no water or lights, the roads are torn up, there is rubble all around, but thank God we survived again.
