Episode 4 - America Calls (Gertrud Braun, Part 4 of 7)

During our previous episode, Gertrud recalled the ending of WWII and her family’s flight from Suhl, in the Soviet occupation zone, to her parents’ hometown of Flensburg, located in the extreme north of Germany on the Baltic Sea. While Gertrud and her family had returned to familiar ground, her long-term future didn't lie in Flensburg.
