Fritz Hollmann page 1 by ric Gustafson
It was April 18 1949. Thirty eight year old Fritz Hollmann was finishing getting dressed. It was Easter Sunday and he was dressing as a Bavarian farm worker. His plan was to travel through the Brenner Pass into Italy. He had just left his wife and family in Gunzburg which was in Southern Germany.
Because of investigators like Benny Ferencz, Hollmann knew he was a wanted man. He boards a train to Sterzing Italy. There he meets an Italian contact. Also he has a visit from a family friend. Hans Sedlmeier gives Hollmann money to sustain him as he travels through the Italian ratline. His next stop was Genoa. There he was to receive new identity papers through the International Red Cross.
The date was May 16 1949.
