Malinki the Medic

Growing up in Prussia (East Germany) was a wonderful experience for a young boy born into a Prussian diplomats family. That all changed when World War II began and at the age of fourteen, Gerd Brandt was swept up into a Russian POW camp and barely stayed alive working as a camp medic. This story shows a glimpse of the other side of the war - from the eyes of a little boy taken as a War Criminal, his fight to survive, his life as a German Polizei after his return and eventual immigration to a life in Canada.
