Jay Ipson and his family had narrowly escaped extermination by the Nazis on several occasions. After liberation Jay's father, a man who spoke seven languages, was put in charge of five cooperatives under the new regime. His father then did something that branded him enemy of the people and the small family was on the way again, ultimately making it to Checkpoint Charley and the American Zone.
