Concentration camp prisoners were also at the mercy of the brutality metered out by SS guards, the OT and the kapos. Abuse was part of every day life.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text text_lead=”yes” border_color=”color-776133″]I had to be disinfected. There were around ten fellow prisoners, living skeletons, who had to go under the showers. We held on to one another tightly so as not to fall. Snow fell and it was bitterly cold. The showers were primitive and only had cold water. I fell unconscious… After showering we had to go to another barracks where our clothes were piled up so that we could get dressed. We had to walk 100 metres in the snow – completely naked.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
