Biography
Born 1928 (1932 is incorrect) in Tluste, Poland, near Zaleszczyki; son of Majer and Fajga Essig. When the Tluste Ghetto was liquidated, only 300 men were kept alive to work in a farm.
"Then we went into the woods ... Father was hit by a bullet and fell at our feet ... My brother was very small then, not quite 8 years old ... I left my brother [with the Wiszniewski family and I joined the partisans] ... I learned to shoot so well that they took me everywhere with them ... Now I just want to go to Palestine and work there. And if I have to fight then I will. This time I shall know what I am fighting for."
Samuel Eisen was interviewed in Krakow soon after the war.
