I visited Auschwitz a few years ago, and I saw the gas chambers myself. Even after so many years, they still are terryfying. Also huge shout out to Witold Pilecki, a polish soldiers who willingly had himself imprisoned in Auschwitz to witness it all and then describe it to the allies. After escaping by himself (he was promised help, but it never came), he told the allies how many horrible things happened there, but they refused to believe him because they couldn't believe thay someone would do that to fellow humans. After the war, he was viewed as an enemy to communism and therefore executed by communists. Unfortunately, to this day he doesn't get the recognition he deserves.

I went to Germany for the first time this year and I visited the Dachau concentration camp memorial. I can't begin to describe what that experience was like. Unless you see something like that with your own eyes it's hard to put into words. The hardest part was walking into the crematorium building. I had to walk back outside because I was almost overcome with emotion. Knowing I was in a place where there was so much cruelty, so much death, I almost couldn't take it. But, looking back on that experience, I'm glad that I went there. Because in a way, the many prisoners that were there, were telling me there stories. And it's a story I will never forget.

I remember I toured Dachau when I visited Germany years ago. Our tour guide was excellent: passionate and professional. He had all of our questions answered before we’d even thought of them. He mentioned that up until 20-30 years ago survivors of the camp were the tour guides. So as a result he and the current tour guides feel a great responsibility to honor them.

My mother is 99 and has her Auschwitz forearm tattoo. Both her parents, all 4 of her grandparents, all her aunts and uncles were gassed, along w nearly all her cousins. A brother was arrested and beaten to death in the second ghetto they were moved to, right before her mother was taken away (her father was taken away earlier). My father, who passed away 12 years ago had basically the same story, both of his parents and his sister were gassed at Auschwitz along with five out of his seven aunts and uncles (along with all of their children). He didn't have a tattoo because his number was on his uniform, as your video states. Nearly all the prisoners my father came in contact with were Jews, in the work camps he moved around for almost 3 years. My mom was taken out of Birkenau (the worst part of Auschwitz) in 1944, after witnessing weeks of train loads going straight into the gas chambers and crematoria on the same day they arrived at Auschwitz. She was moved to the work camp portion of Auschwitz and stayed there until she was taken out by the Nazis along with hundreds of other prisoners as human shields while they traveled West toward the Americans (who might imprison the German soldiers) and away from the Russians (who would certainly just execute all the German soldiers). She was liberated by the Russians at the Elba River, not long before the European part of the war ended. My parents spent the rest of their lives in a close-knit group of about 25 other Jewish survivors like them, who all had the same experience - many had it worse than they did. These were almost all the 'family' I knew, growing up in NYC.

My great grandparents had own a Jewish bakery in Berlin, and had everyone of their kids to help out with everyday business. In March 1939 after the Nazi's raided the bakery, both of my grandparents were sent to different concentration camps not knowing if they would ever see any of them again. After the war had ended, Both of my great grandparents were the only ones who had survived the camps, even though I have never once heard either one of them are willing to talk about their experiences. One time when I had caught a quick glimpse of the tattoo on my grandmother arm not realizing what it had meant until my aunt had explained what happened to my grandmother when she was younger

I worded in a Jewish hospital and saw the tatoos of many patients. Doctors could not fully figure out what was wrong with many patients because no one knew what all had been done to them. What injections they'd had been given or other treatment's they'd had. I know a co-founder of a 12-Step group named "Adult Children of Holocaust Survivors." She said one facet of family life for surviors was a deeply felt shame about the experince, which was never talked about.

“ … history must be examined thoroughly to never again be repeated.” That is so very true. I’m 75, and it seems to me that in someways, basic Fascist, Totalitarian, and Authoritarian hatreds of our time haven’t really changed all that much from the past century. I read a lot of history and feel, as do others, that “hatred” is part of our Human Nature. If that is true, then how do we go about mastering that part of us, or do we really want to? In his essay, “Notes On Nationalism,” Orwell says we first need to confront the biases that we all have. Not an easy task. If it were, there’d be little need for psychologists. Once identified, we need to work at modifying them, so our conscious minds can put them in a better perspective. Orwell says this takes concerted moral effort. In other words, you just can’t claim to be Tolerant and expect it to happen. You actually have to BE Tolerant. It is the ones who wear Tolerance as an armband, who are the most need of this. “‘Tolerance’ is where you tolerate things that actually bother you.” by Alex Tabarrok

…Very well put. Unfortunately, knowing human nature, a lot of people don’t learn from history anymore, it isn’t taught like it used to be. Worked with a nice college girl who told me that in school she was taught that nothing of importance happened before Civil Rights. She was vaguely aware of other histories, but didn’t know the details. For instance: Thought the American Revolutionary war had something to do with World War 2. I’m not joking. When we older people started talking about certain civilizations and historical points she was stunned by what we knew and she didn’t. Those teachers and professors have really done a number on the kids from kindergarten on up through college, and now we have all these problems. It’s just going to get worse….

My grandma who was able to speak German said her two brothers fought in world war II against the Germans and was captured in Africa. The two brothers first decided not to acknowledge the other ones existed afraid that the Germans would use one against the other so they never acknowledged and talk to each other or anything. According to what my grandma said that the two brothers they spent such a long time in the pow camp never acknowledging the other existence or talking to to the other brother persisted after they came back and started farming again. Grandma said that they had to walk all the way back from where they was captured to German POW camp other than when they had to cross a big body of water where they got a riding across in a ship. Conditions in the pow camp for what grandma said was the Germans hardly give them any food to eat they had to eat any bugs or rats or mice that they could get. The Red Cross packages the Germans would go through them and take anything good out of them and then the prisoners would get the rest. The prisoners would take anything that was partially edible like toothpaste and make one big cake out of it and everybody would get a small slice out of that. I was very young when Grandma was telling me that and I never thought of any questions unlike now I had to have a few more questions than I did when I was a kid.

Thank you for sharing your grandmother’s story. My great grandfather was part of the *89th Infantry* and liberated Ohrdruf in April of 1945. They were one of the two first divisions to uncover the atrocities of a death camp. Despite many, many, many attempts from friends, family, and the media, he wouldn’t speak a word of it, and suffered severe PTSD (which in the early ‘90s wasn’t really treated as a mental illness.) it wasn’t until after he passed away, my mother found his journal amongst many of his military keepsakes. He never finished school, he lied about his age at 16 so he could join the army, so although the grammar was very poor, reading through those 4 pages he wrote on the day they came across the camp are the most sincerely disturbing things I’ve ever read. That generation was more innocent than those of us that came along later, and being exposed to that level of horror changed his life forever.

My grandfather on my dad’s side was a survivor or these camps. When he met my mother for the first time he noticed that she would occasionally act in similar ways to the officers at the camp, as well as looked like one very specific officer who gave him the hardest time of all the officers there. Months later he met my mother’s dad, he had been a officer at the same camp as my dad’s dad had been at. (I am not proud of my mother’s side of the family, nor have I spoken to them since I found out what happened at these camps and what my mother’s dad did to my grandfather. I left my mother when I was 6 to live with my dad. That was the last time I ever came into contact with my mother.)

Even the birds seemed to stop singing when you walked through the gates.

When I went through the huts, I got to one board that described what happened to the sick. The prisoners who had previously been Dr’s, G.P’s etc weren’t allowed to minister to the sick, that job went to the layman. Absolutely unbelievable. Did you go down into what used to be the kitchens? The prisoners had drawn coloured vegetables holding cutlery, it looked quite cute until you remembered just where you were. God bless those who were starved, beat, whipped, shot to death.

When I was in school, we had a lady come in to talk about the Holocaust and the death camps. She was in Auschwitz Birkenau. She showed us the faded, but still legible tattoo on her thin, wrinkled forearm. The most amazing thing? She never harbored any hatred or sense of blame towards those Nazis who were in charge of her abusive incarceration. I recall that, vividly. She said:" They were just boys. Scared boys. They followed orders because they were afraid of what might happen to them or their families if they didn't." Many German adults simply 'disappeared'...and you had better ask no questions if you didn't want to disappear, too. In my younger life, I was employed as both an in-home caregiver,& a terminal/dementia caregiver in facilities. I chose the 'graveyard' shifts, because that was when one might experience conversations with elderlies during a rare moment of lucidity. More than a dozen times, I heard how they were the only survivor of a family. A lady whose blue eyed and blond haired family was a subject for 'breeding experiments' lost an older cousin who was savaged by an adult male chimpanzee. "They wouldn't let us see her body..." Man's inhumanity to man knows no bounds. And, unfortunately, it continues today, in different places all over the world. The main reason we know so much about the experiments,& the "Final Solution" is due to obsessive documentation by the Nazis themselves,added to the evidence and testimony provided by some very courageous individuals. May they all find peace.💔🙏

Also I don't know if it's the animation software or something but the star's lines shown on screen are curved which is odd. If you have a limited graphics package (or only access to the most simple of shapes) what you can do is insert two equilateral triangles, one facing up and one facing down. you can then move them to overlap each other with the hypotenuse of each triangle being in the middle of the other. Makes a perfect star David every time!

Also, the Jews were usually given the two triangles in different colors: the first would be a standard prisoner’s group identification triangle, which pointed downward, which would be superimposed over a yellow triangle, which pointed upwards, forming the Star of David. The triangles were referred to as Winkeln, and there was a chart in a camp’s gatehouse showing all of the different combinations and their meanings. These were worn with other markings: a black border meant the prisoner was guilty of “rassenschande” (race defilement,) a black dot at the base of the triangle meant one was a member of the Strafekompanie (the special punishment group) and there were other symbols meaning one was a recidivist, that one was suspected of making escape plans and so forth.

I am Greek and because I read a lot of comments saying we don't learn these at schools, here in Greece we actually do and in small age. And no one as I remember was surprised, and we actually preferred this because teachers displayed videos of concentration camps. We even learned that they were making carpets from hair of prisoners. I think we were calm because, all the Greek history is even more violent.

With a German born Father and twin, my Uncle, in 1911, they grew up in Germany, but they didn't want any part of it, and left by the mid 1930's when things got worse. My Father was able to go to Zurich, and met my Mother, born there, and Jewish. In 1939, they went to the UK, London, and my Uncle too, whereby my Father and Uncle being German aliens, when France fell in 1940, we're then sent to Canada for 3 years, returning in 1943 to Isle of Man, then to London, and my parents were married in 1943, and I was born there in 1944. We we're bombed still, until the war ended in 1945, and came to the US in 1949, on the Queen Mary ship, and lived out their lives here, as I still do. I was in the USAf from 1969 to 1973, during the Vietnam War, now being 78, and a 100% Disabled Veteran.

For anyone willing to learn more, read the stories of Tadeusz Borowski, such as "Proszę państwa do gazu" (Go to the gas, please) and "Ludzie, którzy szli" (People, who were walking). It gave me a completely other view on those camps, as I've always imagined them as the most horrible places, where any insubordination would mean lead to the head or something similar. Meanwhile it had the traits of your stereotypical prison, you could "sort something out" with the guards, like "staynumers" (one of the first prisoners with the smallest numbers) being able to rob newcomers of food, clothing and similar (but for stealing gold you guessed it, lead to the head).

Im from Germany and my school is right next to a secondary concentration camp, the barracks used then are now social appartments for people that receive benefits. It can't get into my mind what used to happen there. My great-grandpa used to work in the company that the prisoners worked in and it's impossible to know how he treated them, I never knew him. But he is described as the sweetest, most loving and funny grandpa ever by my mom and aunt - so I do have hope that he found ways to treat the prisoners well whenever he could. I do want to stress though, that all points mentioned here in the video are taught either in schools or memorial sites which are very common. So even if a German you know doesn't know this much it's not because they weren't told ,:)

My great grandfather was a medic in WW2. I have his picture in uniform here but sadly that's all I have. He died when I was still a child due to cancer. His wife (my great grandmother) and him had met after the war. During the war, my great grandmother had a sweetheart that was a pilot. He died in the war and she named their first born son after him. Her brother was 16 and lied about his age, joined the war, and sadly died as well. Her 2nd son she named after him. When she first met my great grandpa she told him she refused to date him if he was a German, because of her resentment for losing her brother and sweetheart in the war. So my great grandpa lied to her until he knew he wanted to marry her one day. I guess she got over it.

My great-grandad came from a small town that is now in western Ukraine. He and his brother went as soldiers of the Red Army - which is why they both survived. Their entire family, neighbors and the whole Jewish population of their town were killed. When he went there after the war, his daughter (my grandmother) said he came back totally shaken and never actually told her or her mother what he saw there. Truly we must never repeat the horrors of the past!
