Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp entrance. This picture basically sums up my grey and gloomy experience. Before going into the camp‚ I was ready to take a lot of pictures and go into this camp with an open-mind‚ instead of thinking about how many human-beings were tortured and killed. I had a feeling the tour of the camp and the atmosphere would feel creepy and sad‚ but it was not necessarily creepy‚ just mainly unreal that the Holocaust really happened and this was the actual camp that kept so many

Many feared that the Japanese were attempting to “Remain loyal to their homeland” and were acting as spies. Even without concrete evidence‚ President Roosevelt signed for them to be relocated. These camps were still located on American soil and were not death camps. The camps were concentration camps‚ a place where they go to basically do hard labor all day. Many Japanese American families sold their homes and assets‚ there was no guarantee that their lives would continue as normal upon their return

worse. Nazis had been invading other countries and taking them over. I soon found out what concentration camps were. They were places where Jews were sent. Many had already died because of the hard labor and the cruel ways of killing people‚ like gas chambers. Such things like these gave me nightmares. Every time I saw a Nazi soldier I was afraid they were going to pick me up and put me in a concentration camp. My parents tell me that there’s nothing to be afraid of since we’re not Jewish and German

Medical Conditions of Concentration Camps The medical conditions in concentration camps were very horrable. Many things happened to the prisoners at this camp and most of the worst things happened because of the medical treatments. Throughout all the camps medical experiments were performed on the prisoners. They were not only performed on the jewish but on all different kinds of people that were at the camps. The experiments were for the most part either harsh or deadly. Some of the experiments

December 1 1955. Dear diary Today is a very special day. I did something brave. Something I never thought‚ I’d have the courage to do. I know that after this‚ my life will never be the same‚ but I’m sure‚ it’s the right thing to do.I was on my way home after yet another long day of hard work. I was so tired when I took the bus although I was happy to finally be on my way home to my dearest husband. After so many hours sitting in a room too small for the number of people‚ I was exhausted.

mind is probably not Nazi Concentration Camps. Most people think death‚ brutal‚ and inhumane when they think of concentration camps. Music does not seem like it would play a big part in a place where millions were brutally murdered day in and day out. This is why music in concentration camps is considered paradoxical; in other words contradicting. The music was paradoxical in concentration camps because music helped prisoners remember who they are and what they came from; music helped them survive

first day on the battlefield it’s September 16 1916. Yesterday was the first day that the British and French used their tanks they are slow but can take somewhat of a beating and do some major damage to the germans. Well i could not finish yesterday’s entry we had to take cover because the germans started to bombard us with artillery fire and we lost about 30 people in about two minutes and we found their body covered in rats this morning. So today we are going to use the tanks and artillery and fire

Being a partisan fighter Ben Kamm and i are just working in a concentration camp and then we get out. This was around 1946. It was in the poland area. We met some people in the camp that we became friends with but we had to leave them behind because we just don’t lie living in these condition. We could have brought him along but he is just too goofy and he would have got us caught. Ben and I hated being in a concentration camp. They made use work so hard. If you were sick they would kill you. If

Prisoner of war diary entry 19th of April 1941 marks my second in year in this prisoner of war camp‚ I managed to gather a pen and paper from a guard to write this diary entry.
