Notes
Over 50 pages, soft cover, bound horizontally across top of booklet, opens upward. Interior pages have grey handwritten recipes in paragraph form. Half of the pages contain handwritten entries. The first page contains three sausage recipes: "London sausages", "Tea sausages" and "Berlin sausages". Narrative: The notebook was made by Elmars Rozite (donor's father),it contains recipes given to him by other people possibly working with him in a Reichsarbeitsdienst camp. As a way to pass time he would ask people to recall their favorite dish from home. He would then write down the recipe on what he was he said served as toilet paper in the camp. It is written in Latvian but it is full of Latvian, Jewish, Polish, etc. recipes. Elmars Rozite was born 1925-04-11 in Riga, Latvia. He learned German in school and was trained as a carpenter. He left for Germany in October 1943. Upon arrival he spent some time at Schleswig hospital in the because he was ill (October to December 1943). It is believed that Elmars was drafted for the Reichsarbeitsdienst or Reich Labour Service (RAD). In January 1944, he was sent to Oldenburg for his service. The camp he lived in was located 7km from the city itself, near a airbase, and young he was trained as a firefighter. In April 1944 Elmars moved to Eggebek, "halfway between Schleswig and Flensburg". In August 1944 he was released from RAD and transferred to the 35th Battalion of the Latvian Legion where he was trained to use anti-tank guns and machine guns. It is unclear exactly where and how long Elmars served in this battalion. He was liberated by the U.S Armed forces and then stayed in a Displaced Persons camp in Hannover where he met his wife. They immigrated to Canada and he worked for the Canadian Steamship Lines as a maintenance worker and carpenter, building offices.
