"And so Edith Flagg survived the Holocaust. Taking on the identity and paperwork of a deceased woman, Lydia Voskuilen, she lived among the enemy and fooled them all -- day in, day out. She walked around in a Red Cross nurse uniform and spoke Germ an impeccably so they had no idea she was Jewish."

"An unexpected pregnancy (Josh&Aelig;s father, Michael) threw the concocted alternate identity tale off-track, but didn&Aelig;t derail Mrs. Flagg&Aelig;s plan or her will. She checked her uncircumcised newborn son into a sanitarium to get him out of harm&Aelig;s way. He r husband Hans, however, would not be as fortunate. After a failed attempt to escape to France, he was taken to Auschwitz where he died in 1944."

"Following the war, and with only a few bucks to her name, Mrs. Flagg made her way to Israel, where she spent time on a kibbutz in primitive pre-statehood conditions, and later New York City..."

"Mrs. Flagg moved to Los Angeles in 1948. Soon after, she started her own business importing a fabric called polyamine -- a form of polyester. It was used for parachutes and military uniforms during the war, but once the bombers faded into memory , a surplus prompted crafty European entrepreneurs to use it for other purposes, like underwear."

"Edith Flagg is truly an inspiration to all. A Simple Girl tells the life story of a woman who survived the unimaginable and fulfilled the American Dream.Flagg was born in a small town in Romania in 1919. Having traveled to Vienna to go to fashio n school at the young age of 15, she watched Hitler march into Austria and decided at that moment she would not let him decide her fate. Flagg fled Austria to Holland, where she became an active member of the Dutch Underground, an organization tha t fought Hitler and the Nazi regime. A simple Girl describes all that Flagg (a single mother) endured. After immigrating to Palestine at the end of the war, Flagg moved to America, where her incredible story becomes that much more amazing. Wit h in her pocket, Flagg managed to become one of the leading fashion designers of her day, and a pillar in the California apparel industry."

- This organization's full name was "Vereniging tot Vakopleiding van Palestina Pioniers" (Dutch: The Association for Professional Training of Palestine Pioneers).

In June 1940 its name and objec tives were changed, becoming the "Joodse Centraal voor Beroepsopleiding" (J.C.B.; Jewish Center for Vocational Training), working under the auspices of the Joodse Raad in Amsterdam from March 1941 until its disbanding on September 29, 1943"

JM: Hans Stein was getrouwd met Edith Feuerstein. Hij behoorde tot de Deventer Vereniging. Edith Feuerstein woonde voor haar huwelijk vanaf 19 augustus 1938 op de in 1937 voor Palestina-Pioniers opgerichte Joodse Jeugdfarm in Gouda, de villa Catha rinahoeve met ruim twee hectare grond. Zij verbleef daar met een onderbreking van een half jaar in 1939 tot 17 april 1940. Daarna is ze verhuisd naar Nederhorst den Berg.
De burgemeester van Voorst verzocht opsporing, aanhouding en voorgeleiding van Hans Stein. Hij was woonachtig in Voorst en hij werd er van verdacht van woonplaats te zijn veranderd zonder daartoe de vereiste vergunning te hebben. Met deze omschrij ving werden joden aangeduid die waren ondergedoken.
