The Weidner family was a part of the Donauschwaben** community. (see below for Donauschwaben history). Hans and his parents, like the majority of families in the town, led a very simple and modest life. Hans attended primary school and then a trade school where he was an apprentice to become a shoemaker. World War II broke out and changed everything. The war ended his education and apprenticeship, and would change the course of his life forever. A quickly advancing Russian army threatened his country and his home which forced Hans to choose between being conscripted into the poorly equipped Romanian army or enlisting in the well equipped German army. He and a few of his friends made the simple and unanimous decision to join the German army together, only to be turned away and sent back home, because they were just under the legal age for enlistment. Undaunted, Hans and his friends tried a different approach. This time they swam across a river to a neighboring town and were allowed to enlist there. Hans was deployed to Yugoslavia, where he fought the communist partisans led by Josip Broz Tito. Hans older brother Feri was sent to Greece to fight the Russian army. Unfortunately, Feri never returned. He was listed as Missing In Action and would never see his brother Hans again. Hans was wounded, but survived the combat and was ultimately captured by the British and sent to a prisoner of war camp in Cambridge, England. the war ended, he was set free and was sent to Austria to work for the American army. Of the four hometown friends who enlisted together with Hans, only one remains alive today. Peter, the lone survivor, was also the best man at Hans' wedding. Peter currently resides in St. ine, Florida. While in Austria, Hans met the love of his life, Maria, a girl from his hometown. were married in Linz, Austria on 14, 1948, and remained married for 66 years, until Maria passed away on Feb 3, 2015. Joseph, their oldest son, was born in Linz, Austria on 12, 1949. Eight months later, Hans and Maria made a life-changing decision that would alter their lives forever. were granted permission to immigrate to the United States. Unsure of the future but with the hope of a better life, Hans, Maria and young Joe crossed the Atlantic Ocean aboard the SS America. were processed through Ellis Island, New York, and took a train to Chicago, Illinois, where they lived for ten years. Hans found work as a machinist working for the A.G. Optical, Co. During this period a second son John was born in 1951. The cold and damp winters took their toll on Hans. reasons forced Hans to seek employment in a warmer, dryer climate. In 1960, the family relocated to Alhambra in Southern California where Hans continued his occupation as a machinist. He worked for Accurate Grinding and Mfg Corp. in Los Angeles, manufacturing parts for the aerospace industry. He worked there for 17 years, machining precision parts that were used in NASAs Gemini and Apollo programs. While living in California, John and Maria were active members of the Los Angeles Donauschwaben Dance Group. The group was founded to promote and perpetuate the story of the Donauschwaben people, so that future generations can take pride in their heritage and pass it on to their children. Here, they met many old friends from their homeland, and made many new friends, who all shared a common heritage. These friendships lasted their entire lives. raising their sons, Joe enlisted in the Air Force and John moved to San Diego to attend college, Hans and Maria sold their home in Alhambra and moved to Vista, California. Hans went to work for the Deutsch Co. in Oceanside making electrical connectors for the space program, including the Space Shuttle. Here, Hans attained the greatest achievement of his career by attaining the designation of "Master Craftsman". He became the instructor to all new machinists, passing on his expert knowledge and experience to a new generation of machinists. retirement, Hans and Maria spent many wonderful years traveling, visiting friends and relatives, and tending to their many fruit continued... |
