Were Bulgarian Jews required to wear the Star of David?
Yes. This measure was introduced in 1942 together with other anti – semitic laws. An interesting thing happened in 1943 when some people who were against this humilating practice cut the electricity supply to the factory in which the stars were produced. Unfortunately the factory didn’t close down completely but that was an admirable act given the fact that in other European countries non-Jews watched what was happening to their Jewish neighbors but did nothing to protect them.
