Christmas and New Years they did not work? I wonder why that was. I'm glad they had 2 days.
I never knew that people died by getting hung in these camps.
"like a sword, the order cut throught the air"
They tortured the rest of the camp by making them watch and walk by the hanging body.
"then the entire camp, block after block, filed past the hanged boy and stared at his extinguished eyes, the tongue hanging from his gaping mouth. The Kapos forced everyone to look him squarely in the face. Afterward, we were given permission to go back to our block and have our meal. I remember that on that evening, the soup tasted better than ever.."
Many brutalities were shared in this section. Stories of many more being killed by hanging. Even children being orderd to beat their own fathers for not making the bed properly.
