US Army veteran Harry Mogan recalls about his first encounter with Nazi atrocities
On 20 January 1945, approximately 1000 female Jewish prisoners were evacuated from the Schlesiersee (today Sława) camp in Upper Silesia, western Poland, a region annexed to Germany. These women were forced on a death march in a southwesterly direction. On the way, the prisoners passed through other camps, and more women were added to the march.
On 5 May 1945, after covering a distance of over 800 km, the march ended in the town of Volary (German: Wallern) in Czechoslovakia, not far from the border with Germany and Austria.
Of the approximately 1,300 women who marched to Volary, some 350 survived. .

Mr. Harry Morgan, it is brave people like you who deserve to be 'righteous among the nations' and receive God's blessings for saving all these innocent concentration camp victims (Jews included) from death by the SS Nazis and to tell the world about it !

It was a hospital for the German soldiers?
