I've to correct the text about Pist - Sandau. The village was never
occupied by the German Army! The Hultschiner Country was in Silesia in
the Prussia State and in 1938 came into the Reich.
The Hultschiner Country came unter Prussia in 1742. That means, the
People lived about 200 hundred years like Prussian.
