Move to Mandatory Palestine[edit]

I've added an additional reference to Werner's move to Mandatory Palestine from the German Wikipedia entry. The Haaretz regarding their death article that is currently cited in the article lead does in fact state that they moved to Israel in 1946:

"Braun, who lives in Mevasseret Zion, was born in Nuremberg, Germany in 1918. He got into photography at 18, then in 1937 he fled Germany, first to Denmark and later to Sweden. In 1946, he arrived in Israel where he began his photography work. A year later, he bought a photography lab on Ben-Yehuda Street in Jerusalem, called it Photo Europa and kept it operating through the War of Independence, which he photographed while serving as a soldier."

The haGalil article taken from the German entry states this (in German):

"Auf verschiedenen Hachscharot in Dänemark und Schweden bereitete er sich auf sein zukünftiges Leben in Palästina vor. Fast zehn Jahre verbrachte er auf mehreren dieser Trainingsfarmen, bis er 1946 endlich die Reise nach Erez Israel antreten durfte."

Which my terrible knowledge of German translates to stating that they were finally able to travel to the land of Israel in 1946. An English-language article that isn't hidden behind a paywall, as the Haaretz article is, would be more suitable, but I couldn't find one. RabbanitChaya (talk) 00:10, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
