Sammy, I didn't know your in-laws escaped the Soviets by going to China. That happened more than we remember these days but still wasn't the route of choice. Jews were crossing into China all through the war when they couldn't get to any Western countries. How about a thread on how they completed the loop from Russia to the US via China.

The only story I know that can match it is a lawyer I know in Miami who is Jewish. His family escapes the Nazis by going to Spain before the war, survived the war and Franco long enough to make their way to Cuba, and eventually escaped Castro by coming to America. FWIW, he has visited Cuba to see relatives.
