slept night before, thoughts of my family did not allow me to rest. When I awoke this particular morning, I had some trouble tying my shoelaces. This caused me to report for the morning drill just one minute late. Dashing to join the lineup, I rushed out of the door only to be clobbered on the head by a German soldier and his rifle. As I fell to my knees, he hit me again but this time my legs were his targets. I could not stand on my own. My fellow prisoners came to my aid. After the drill, they helped me to the barracks. I was bleeding from my head and legs. One prisoner cleaned my wounds and used the torn-off sleeve of his undershirt as a bandage. He could not, however, bandage my head as any wounded or sick prisoner was immediately put to death in the gas chamber. His efforts saved my life.
