In honor of Rosh HaShana, the New York Times has dug up a story and recording of the first Jewish service in Germany in 1944, held by a group of American troops. The impromptu cantor, Max Fuchs, is still with us.
Before shutting down for Rosh HaShana I'd wish a good Eid el-Fiter holiday also to any Muslim readers of Ruminations, but I don't think there are any. So I wished it to the various Arabs I know.
