     Luke has discovered that Clara married a Gedalia Ort, someone who could help her escape to Israel. They divorced soon after she arrived.Gedlai helped many people escape the fate that befell the rest of her family. From Clara's stepson, Benny Herbst, Luke learned that Clara and Arnold met while serving in the British Military, probably in Egypt.3
     She was in the British military circa 1943. We have no idea when she arrived in Palestime, and how or when she left Galecia.

     Clara Wasser married Arnold Fokshaner circa 1943.3 Clara and Arnold moved to Schloss-Strasse 32, Berlin, Charlottenberg, West Germany.4
