Karl Polivka, 'Nebowid, Post Rot Petschkau,Bz.Kolin, Protectorate B.u.M. Nebowied, 2 March 1984. To His Excellency Head of Group and Minister of Stæts Karl Hermann Fr a n k in P r I am so free and allow me to submit a request and please listen to me. I am 66 years old, Witwer, wäre.extensive high-level naval sub- officer.I went to the military voluntarily in the l7th year of life in österreich.-ungar.Armee and served in small heels without exception - 25 years without punishment.In l9l3 I was supervited by a Czech official out of revenge, that I am a German-minded person and so he persecuted me for no reason until I was supravited. In Pola, where I had previously served/in Kriegsmarine/, died in l9l3 my wife, I had to leave everything there and I took my children to Bohemia.The war just broke out at that time and I got an amount of 400 K for my long duty without penalty.I expected then that I would get a state service/as a longer serving certificatist was in the first class married higher marine sub-officer/. But because the world war broke out,4Oo crowns clearance I killed on my children, I immediately had to go to Italy as a landstorm sergeant, took part in the whole world war in various fronts, and then in the vewes. republic in Tchaslau still 2 years, that is until 1920 still to serve. Then I was released for no reason, I had a strong heart defect and rheumatism all over the body,-the consequences were the World War. I was examined medically and was recognized for only 2O% invalid. In the course of time, my illness has worsened so much that I have completely crippled the consequences of rheumatism on my right hand.Because I was a music master, on brass instruments, I could not do my trade and was dismissed because of the crippling in my work.I learned the music trade in Germany.I reached the vehicular republic at the Ministry of Defence to get a small pension as a small invalid war injured, but everywhere I was rejected. Then I submitted to the State Office for the Victims of War to ask for a pension, but because I was punished at the time with the insult of the Republic, I received nothing, not even out of grace. Again, I submitted a small pension in the Protectorate, although somewhat late, I had no right to receive anything and again I was rejected.How and why do I not know for what reason, because I am a German-thinking person and I was persecuted in the Republic in such a way that I still feel the consequences today. I now work as a helper on the road, but for me as a cripple in my 66 years the work is heavy and hard.With many pain and effort I work so that I don't end up.In the Federal Republic I was suppressed everywhere. 3 years ago I was driven over by a German car,was in the hospital with almost crushed head, there I gained for a long time and the consequences are that I now often get painful landings.My clothes Kartellich captures St.M.\9-83/44./.
