Brother1 Reizenstein

According to a 1941 article in the Pittsburgh-Post Gazette, a brother of Charles Reizenstein, for social reasons, threatened to force Charles (whose first name at that time was "Israel") into the Imperial Army if he didn't change his name, at least in spelling. This prompted Israel to emigrate to the United States. Israel was apparently not as attached to his name as this action suggests, as not long after arriving he changed his name to "Charles."
