User Comment:
Based on name spelling and age assumptions, this boy appears to be able to fit this students identity. However, limited information leads to unlimited questions.
Expert Reviewer Comment:
Great work! Make sure you take note of his ghetto comment of WYM 22.8.42 REIGER 16. Also there are a few other possible candidates you might want to look at.
Approver Comment:
"Limited information leads to unlimited questions"--this could be the motto of the project!
There are actually TWO Josek Hafts--one living at Neustadt, the other on Hanseatenstrasse. Do you think either one could be a candidate? Note that Emma's comment to you refers to the May Josek, rather than the November Josek you've listed.
As Emma suggests, go ahead and check out some of the other candidates: there's a chance that Haftka might also be Haft.
Thanks!
