Kurt Grosser was released from captivity on 21 January 1947. He got married shortly thereafter to Adelheid Auer, whom he had met and fell in love with in 1938, in their home town of Dresden. A year later he was called upon to work in a Russian labor camp, so they fled to the western zone of Germany.
