Ilse Irene, passed the nursing exam on October 21, 1940 and has since worked as a nurse in the Jewish hospital in Frankfurt am Main at Gagernstraße 36. In the mid-1950s she lived in New York and got married . Her health is going through tough times. Meningitis and a mild form of polio tie her to bed.
Her path was unknown for a long time. The assumption that she managed to escape from Germany in time turned out to be wrong. During a visit to the central archive for research into the history of Jews in Germany, Heidelberg, the archive director there, Mr. Honigmann, presented a finding aid of the displaced person camps in Berlin, where it is listed. According to this, her path can be reconstructed to the extent that she arrived in Berlin on June 29, 1945, marked by deportation, and went to Frankfurt on July 19, 1945, where she had lived before her ordeal. It turns out that she was last in the Stutthof concentration camp, prisoner number 71030. "Evacuations", so-called death marches, took place from this camp from January 25, 1945 before the approaching Red Army. including Chinow, around 150 km away, near the Pomeranian coast. Irene Ilse Ettlinger was liberated there on March 10, 1945. This means that she was among one of the deportations of Jews from Frankfurt am Main to ghettos and extermination camps that had begun in October 1941. Irene Ilse Ettlinger is thus a direct survivor of the Holocaust. Jewish committees in Bydgoszcz and Lodz gave her support after the liberation and arranged for her return via Berlin.
