Josef Kaminski, residing in Kfar Saba, Israel, claimed compensation for harm to liberty and forced labor, including being forced to wear the Yellow badge, in the Bialystok Ghetto from July 1941 to March 1943. He stated that before the war he lived with his parents in Bialystok and worked in his father's colonial grocery store. After the ghetto was established, he was assigned to work in a furniture factory. After inconsistencies emerged in his statements regarding the dates when he fled from the ghetto (1941 vs 1943) and the nature of his employment, the pension application was withdrawn. His parents, Alexander and Sara Kaminski, were deported to Treblinka in 1943 and he never saw them again. Following his escape from the ghetto, Kaminski hid with a Polish family in Jasinowka until his liberation in July 1944. After the war, he spent two years in Bialystok, then moved to Warsaw before immigrating to Israel in 1948, via a DP camp in Pocking, Germany and Italy. His application for a pension under the ZRBG was rejected due to inconsistencies with his prior testimony. The United Restitution Organization offices in Tel Aviv and Haifa, and the Claims Conference were involved in his case. The names of the applicants Lom Rachel and Gurwicz Mordechaj are mentioned on p.42
