Yuzzi Galambos lived with her three children in Castiglion Fiorentino, where they had rented a flat in an isolated farm-house, with no running water, and she worked as a translator and gave private lessons in German.
She hired a young girl, Ida Brunelli, as housekeeper and baby sitter, to live with the family and watch her three children.

Ida Brunelli took Sandro, Fiorenza and Lisetta Toth to her mother, in Monselice, where they were introduced as Hungarian refugees, and no one knew they were Jewish.
Wikipedia.org cites: German soldiers, who knew the children's Jewish background, helped them with food and drove them to Ida' mother's, in Monselice.
Ida sought help from the mayor, who helped her find refuge for the three children in Christian institutions near Padua, and Ida acted as their sole guardian.
Padovanet.il cites: With the help of generous people like the Silvia Vincenzina Turolla, Don Aldo Pesavento, Doctor Marcello Minorello and Archbishop Luigi Gnata, the children were given refuge in Noventa Padovana in the Sant Anthony Orphanage Orfanotrofio Sant’Antonio, run by the Frati del Santo di Padova.

After the war, Ida Brunelli contacted the Jewish Brigade, who were looking for hidden Jewish orphans in Italy.
Wikipedia.org cites: Yuzzi Galambos' brother, Pauli Galamos Yanai, who lived in Palestine, had asked the soldiers of the Jewish Brigade to check on his sister and her children.
Shlomo Sever Rovitz, who spent some time with the children, verifying Ida’s story, cites: In June, 1945, "18-year-old Ida appeared with three children in the military camp in Santa Colomba, near Siena."

To make sure the three children were safely on board the ship leaving from Napoli, Ida Brunelli, for a whole month, travelled with them from camp to camp until she was certain they were in good hands.

Zvi Yanai cites "A few months before completing 10th grade, I had dropped out of school at Kibbutz Ramat David and started to work full-time in fodder. Later I was employed in mucking out the cowsheds and the poultry coops."

Zvi Yanai cites: "I rejected the artillery corps. Closed places make me feel bad, I explained to him. The Golani Brigade and the Givati Brigade looked to us like corps that were too dull. We wanted something that would satisfy our adventurous urges. We agreed on the paratroops. When I was asked by the induction squad why I wanted to volunteer for the paratroops, I replied: personal challenge."
"At that time the kibbutz herd was flocking to the Nahal, a brigade that combined settlement with military service, perhaps wisely. Yehuda Harari's paratroop battalion was not suited to the kibbutz upbringing. At that time it was a magnet for athletes, especially boxers from the Maccabi and Betar associations, soccer players and quite a few young men with police records."
