Auschwitz
What really happened behind the closed gates of Auschwitz? It seems there is not enough words to describe the tragedy that happened inside, but but do we truly know the horrors inside.

Mengele took something out of his pocket, and hit the four girls.” All four of them died—what a monster he was. One day, he befriended a little gypsy boy and dressed him like his own son—dressed him up in a Nazi uniform—and the next day he threw the boy into the gas chamber alive; that's what Mengele did. ” One day we saw a woman who worked in the kitchen, she wanted to give her child a little soup, she put the child on a piece of wood to slide him under the wire—the guards shot the mother.”The little girl fell on the wire and was electrocuted. Many people would go to “touch the wire” and then they were lying there dead—they looked so beautiful.”. The amount of cruel punishment these people had to endure has no words to explain it. The Nazi leaders were not only cruel ,but they would make people suffer to the point where they would have to do something they were not supposed to do in order
