Romania: Jewish Slave Labor Camp Suraia

The tiny Romanian town of Suraia, District Putna, was the location of a Jewish labor camp. Inmates were treated so abominably that a 1942 document recorded an entire detachment observed laboring at a remote location completely naked.

Below: A Jewish family correspondence: June 9, 1942, censored postal card from Eva Braunstein at Bacau to her husband, Isaac, detainee at Camp Suraia, and June 23, 1942, censored postal card from Isaac Braunstein at Camp Suraia to his wife Eva at Bacau.
