Holocaust: The Auschwitz Gas Chambers
"There was a sign 'to disinfection'. He said 'you see,
they are bringing children now'. They opened the door, threw
the children in and closed the door. There was a terrible cry.
A member of the SS climbed on the roof. The people went on
crying for about ten minutes. Then the prisoners opened the
doors. Everything was in disorder and contorted. Heat was
given off. the bodies were loaded on a rough wagon and taken to
a ditch. The next batch were already undressing in the huts.
After that I didn't look at my wife for four weeks."
From the testimony of
SS private Boeck (Langbein, quoted in
Pressac, 181)
