Josef Bendl

Josef Bendl is employed by Österreichische Versicherungs-AG after graduating from high school. He also studied theology as an external student at the University of Vienna.

After the Anschluss, he was briefly remanded in custody in Mödling on March 13, 1938. He is then led through the town for four hours by an SS delegation with a sign that reads: "I have betrayed my people!" This is followed by four more interrogations and two house searches. Josef Bendl was under police surveillance until 1940, after which he was expelled from Mödling. From 1939, he belonged to a resistance group in Mödling called Schöffelvorstadt.
