Whilst an internee he wrote a diary which has been typed up and which my brother in law has. George Scola died in 2006.

I'm looking for information about the Dunera and the experience of the people interned in Australia because I'm writting a novel. I read some books (The Dunera Scandal, Collar the Lot) but this pages of Richard Kandelmann’s diary are very interesting because it let me make a real idea about how a person lived that experience. I'm very interested in this diary. It will be possible to obtain a copy? Thank you. Josep Ortiz jortiz@movistar.es Hello,

Bartrop with Gabrielle Eisen (Melbourne: Jewish Museum of Australia/Schwartz and Wilkinson, 1990). The National Archives of Australia holds the standard two records that Australian authorities kept on each internee. They can be viewed on-line via their website. They indicate your father was interned first in Camp 7 at Hay Hay, NSW & then at Tatura in Victoria. Both towns have small museums dedicated to the internment camps. He returned to England on one of the first ships carrying Dunera internees back to England. According to another record I found he returned to England for release. Hope one of your artefacts is the specially designed & printed Camp 7 bank notes - most of these fetch good sums at sales. Carol John
