After the War

Little is known about how Josef Šrámek returned home after the war. It is believed he became part of the French Legions—military units of the newly formed Czechoslovakia, which played a symbolic role in ending the war and liberating the country.

The following photos marked "1920" seem to have been taken after his return home:

He married Ludmila Anna Nováková, who is mentioned with affection in the diary. They had two children: Josef Šrámek Jr., who passed away in 2006, and Jarmila Svobodová, my mother, who lives in Prague.

For the family's genealogy, see www.rodovid.org and look for Josef Šrámek.
