Gold and in the name of the 6 brothers and sisters, I ask for mercy for my brother ROBERT GÖBEL, who in i941 was convicted of political offenses he committed before the Protectorate of Bohemia-Märten, to a prison sentence of 4 years. My brother, who today served his sentence in Magdeburg-Sudenburg, Hallstadterstrasse 8a, was born on ll September igoi in Ober-Ullische Kreis Mähr - Schönberg, lost half of his life on 20 April 1943, and would we, Mother and Geschister be happy if Robert Göbel were allowed to volunteer as a soldier to join the army in order to make good his progress to the fatherland in front service. From a family full of children, we were 6 sons and 2 daughters, we sons were dependent on ourselves already in early youth and we were in a strange position, but it was precisely my brother Robert who was never able to gain a foothold and probably had temporarily fallen to a crooked level out of material need, which ended badly and justly for him.
