Coming Out Of The Ice - Chapter Thirty-Eight Part A
Part 3 - Stalking Rat In The Jungles Of The North
This is a continuation of my reading of Victor Herman’s book, Coming Out Of The Ice, An Unexpected Life, out of print for some time. Just a reminder of why I am doing this. I consider this book to be extremely important, because it is a glimpse into what we can expect if we do not resist the oncoming tyranny. Victor Herman, in discussing his experiences in the Soviet gulag emphasized: “Don’t think it can’t happen here.” And, it is now happening here.
The series begins here.
Chapter Thirty-Eight is rather long, so I split it into two parts. This is Part A.
For context, Victor is sent back to Gulag 231 in the winter of 1940-41. It is June of 1941 when Hitler launches Operation Barbarossa, the assault on the Soviet Union.
This is a Siberian tree slug. Victor expands his dietary choices.
The reading is here. As always, I hope you appreciate Victor’s words.
