The Eighth Dwarf
“Within three hours after Oppenheimer drove it in, the jeep would be completely disassembled and its parts sold on the black market.
The rear entrance to the DP camp wasn’t really a rear entrance. Even a fairly close inspection would not have revealed the cleverly cut high steel-mesh fence that was rolled back to let Oppenheimer drive the jeep through. The DP’s were not prisoners at the Badenhausen camp, and the jeep could just as easily have been driven through the main entrance. But then some ...of the UNRRA officials might have seen it and started asking questions. Whether other DP’s saw it didn’t matter. Nearly everyone had his own fiddle going, in most cases it was common knowledge, and informers were dealt with by being informed on. If that didn’t work, there were always the three Poles who, for a fair price, would administer a sound beating.
After the Greek and the Latvian rolled the fence back into place, Oppenheimer got out of the jeep without a word and headed for the small shed that housed the operations of Kubista the Czech.MoreLess
