- Summary
- Stripped of her name, 18 year-old "Sonia" Shainwald went to war without basic training, without equipment, without food or any of the essentials necessary to fight the Germans. Urging her family and neighbors to leave a wretched hiding place during the liquidation of their ghetto in 1942, she, her parents and uncle spent a brutal winter in the forests and then joined a Soviet partisan brigade.
