My father-in-law (when he got to America) was totally penniless after being in the Russian Gulag system for years

The father of Trump gave to my father-in-law a job and a place to live when he got to America totally penniless after being in the Russian Gulag system for years. My father-in-law might have bee accepted into the Red Army (he was Jewish), but he was born into an area at the time was registered as German, so they sent him to the Gulag, while his brother (the borders had shifted) was registered a being born in Poland). In fact he was in the Red Army (and killed in the war). My father-in-law, Bill Finn [he had changed his name when he got to America. He wa finkelstein] was talented. He rose to the head worker of the work camp because of his ability to fix just about anything thtr got broke. When the war ended, he finally got to the USA, and met his future wife Rita Finn, my mother-in-law. she was born in Germany proper -Berlin, but had escaped by the Kinder-Transport to England where he received lodging with a family that was kind to take her in, but also that abused her in ways I would rather not explain. That put in her a deep hatred of men for the rest of her life, but did not stop her from marrying my father-in-law, and bearing three fine daughters. (she inserted that hatred into her daughter who became my wife. My wife was okay,-- until she was not ). I might say that my own family history is a lot less colorful. My grandparents escaped to America when they saw have things were going under the Russian czar Alexander with the pogroms and etc.…. So, my parents grew up as honest, loyal, hard-working Americans. My dad went to Cal Tech to get his degree in Mechanical Engineering, and from then on worked mostly in Aero-space, the U-2, the InfraRed Telescope for the Army,(note article in Lifw Magazine August 1954, pg 25) and in satellite communication for SDI. He made an extra fine camera for the U-2 which was much more accurate that the regular one, but had the disadvantage of being bulky so was not used regularly.
