  ... spiritual qualities of the men and women of Barniv, their simple ways and dignity, were passed on from generation to generation until that tragic day when every thing was angulfcd in the calamity that overwhelmed European Jewry. We, a handful, have survived the Catastrophe and by a supreme effort we have begun to weave the strands that bind us to our ravished community. The years arc passing and a new generation has grown to maturity. This new generation, children and grandchildren of the men and women of Barniv in Israel and other countries, know very little about the community from which their parents hail, while the number of townsmen and townswomen of Barniv is steadily growing smaller. It is for these reasons that we regard the establishment of this memorial to the martyrs who died ...

They seized 60 girls and transported them to the camp Yagelnica. near Chortkow. After several months of body break-ing work, the girls met their death.

  ... I was a citizen of the United Stales, I found myself pinned down like a butterfly on a collectors board, unable to take one step that would lead me closer to securely. With the Russian army drawing nearer to Boibcrkc every day the future looked grim indeed.
