1,000 Jewish men were recruited into the Slovak army in 1941, and designated as the Sixth Labor Battalion. It placed them under military jurisdiction, and thus they were saved from deportation. Relates that the living conditions in the barracks were acceptable. Military training was carried out using spades instead of rifles. At the beginning of 1942, the battalion was moved to the snow-covered mountains of Liptov, where they were engaged in quarrying or constructing roads. Rumors reached the laborers that Jews were being transferred from Slovakia in huge numbers and were being subjected to unbelievable atrocities. However, the Jews of the Sixth Labor Battalion were not included in the transfers. Their next task was digging canals in the swampy Zohor area, in the insufferable summer heat, fleas, and very cold winters. Next, they were sent eastwards to Sabinov, and then to nearby Kamenice and the forests of Porubka for more construction assignments. In May 1944 a message was received that the Jewish men should leave immediately as their liquidation was imminent. They escaped into the forest and survived.
