Liidia Lust-Eenpalu remembers June 1941 and leaving Narva
Liidia Lust-Eenpalu was the daughter of Jaan Lust, the last mayor of Narva before the war. She tells Lembit Lauri about the June deportation of 1941, about leaving Narva in 1944 and about the search for a way to reach Sweden through Finland. She goes on to describe the beginning of life as a refugee and a meeting with Count Folke Bernadotte. Her story links the fate of one Narva family with the town hall where her father once worked, a building gutted in the fighting of 1944.

Eesti keeles
Liidia Lust-Eenpalu oli Narva sõjaeelse viimase linnapea Jaan Lusti tütar. Ta räägib Lembit Laurile 1941. aasta juuniküüditamisest, Narvast lahkumisest 1944. aastal ja võimaluse otsimisest jõuda Soome kaudu Rootsi. Edasi kirjeldab ta pagulaselu algust ja kohtumist krahv Folke Bernadottega. Tema lugu seob ühe Narva pere saatuse raekojaga, kus ta isa kunagi töötas ja mis 1944. aasta lahingutes välja põles.
