\u201cInterviewer: \u2018That was also dangerous\u2019.<\/p>\n \u201cBeitz: \u2018My actions were reported to the police several times, and once I was even put in prison in Breslau. The man interrogating me for the Gestapo greeted me with the words, \u201cBerthold, what are you doing here? Are you crazy?\u201d He turned out to be an old friend of mine from Greifswald. He\u2019d tried to get a degree in theology, but couldn\u2019t pass his exams, so he joined the SA and from there transferred to the Gestapo. In Breslau, he\u2019d heard that a man named Beitz had been charged, and he told them, \u201cI\u2019ll take that case.\u201d And he let me go. That\u2019s probably the only reason I\u2019m still alive, otherwise I\u2019d have been dragged off to a concentration camp. It was luck, pure luck\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n (To be continued)<\/p>\n Source:.
