When I came home, I joined (I hadn’t been politically organized before) the SED (Socialist Unity Party of Germany) – you know – that was the association of the social democrats, communists and many independent people. I worked in the ministry occasionally and was temporarily at the SED in Tempelhof as the 2nd secretary (vice-president), later on even as party secretary for a company in
Johannisthal. As a last comment: After 1989/90 I have been particularly interested in those moor soldier meetings. I
arranged that moor soldiers from Köpenick could give interviews. We have good contact and I have been going there every year. I have been taking part in their meetings: against war and against
fascism. – You know – and that is the conclusion: War is something terrible! It creates horrible conditions - not only for the soldiers but for civilians, as well. You have to turn against fascism and
now, as well, the neo-Nazis to be able to prevent similar affairs which they are aiming for. That could maybe be even the closing words, if you have no other questions: Well, this conclusion did
not only arise in recent years. You were already living with this decision in the times, when you were imprisoned and then afterwards during the war.
