biographical history: Laszlo Antos was born in Kecskemét in 1903. He was an avid amateur filmmaker and photographer as well as an engineer. He owned a business in Hungary with some other Jews. Because of the laws in Hungary, he had difficulties with his business and began working at a new company in Berlin that one of his co-owners opened. Antos filmed around the city and documented what was going on in Berlin in 1936. On May 1, 1944, he was called in as a labor battalion engineer at Sárospatak to serve with the #15 airport building unit. He survived the war.
