Mimosa

Alex Lombardi 10/2/08 Eine was für hoffnungslose Stadt, sie nicht sogar oben einen Kampf setzte. OH- quellen ich schätzen hervor, daß sehr wenige, sie sind keine Ausnahme. Warum Hitler sogar tut, wünschen Sie diese Dummköpfe absolut, haben sie, einen annehmbaren Widerstand schon oben zu setzen und werden leicht getäuscht. Ha, sprangen sie praktisch in ihre Gräber für uns. Wenn ich für wieviele Juden ich heute tötete, mich könnte zurück zu Deutschland bewegen und leben ein rechtes feines Leben mit meiner Frau zahlend erhielt. Es ist zu schlecht, daß sie beginnen, zu verwirklichen wieviel Gefahr sie innen sind, es waren Spaß zum Spielzeug mit ihnen.** Nazi Guard Day 1 What a hopeless town, they didn't even put up a fight. Oh well i guess very few did, they are no exception. Why does Hitler even want these fools dead, they have yet to put up a decent resistance and are easily fooled. Ha, They practically jumped into their graves for us. If I got paid for how many Jews I killed today I could move back to Germany and live a right fine life with my wife. It is too bad that they are starting to realize how much danger they are in, it was fun to toy with them.

Julianne Baumgardner 10/2/08 I sigh once again as I stare down at the picture of my husband and I. He is now in Sighet dealing with all the Jewish people there. He tells me of all the happenings in the small Jewish town and how they are so graciously and stupidly taking in the Nazi soldiers. His most recent letter tells me that he is obviously disgusted by them and doesn’t really see a reason for them to live. I really do miss him. I wish he could come back to live here in Germany with me, but that is obviously not going to happen anytime soon. I snarl and glare at nothing in particular as I think of those Jews who have no idea that they have taken my husband from me. It is too bad that I was not allowed to be a nurse on the battlefield. Maybe then I could see all he is describing first-hand.

Evan Selden 10-2-08 I love my father, but Moshe de Beadle can teach me so much more about the cabala and about his escape from the Gestapo. I cant believe that no one believed him about the Jews who were made to dig their own graves. Everyone, including my whole family have been ordered to wear the star of david. Hopefully we will get out of this small ghetto but I know that when we do, we will take a long crowded train ride to who knows where, i'm scared.

Alex Lombardi-Tag 32 10/06/08 We have finished reinigen the town of Sighet and moving its occupants to a Konzentrationslager, newly built just for them. I hope they appreciate what we have done for them, die tiere. It took drei tage to remove the occupants and there are still a few that have not been fully transported. I wonder how they will take the news of their death?

Evan Selden 10-6-08 I dont know if we have to wright anything if wew didnt read enough to do so or if we were supposed to read more.???

Julianne Baumgardner 10/5/08 So now they are moving all of thsoe Jews out of Sighet and even after the many transports there are still those who are waiting to leave with all of their precious effects. They are lucky to have the protection of the soldiers on their way to their new home. I laugh when I think about how naive they were to think that they would be allowed to stay. That they thought they were going to stay and have an actual government. Their fate was decided the day that our soldiers arrived in their pitiful little town. They should have known that their death was coming.

Evan Selden 10/15/08 It all seems somewhat like a distant dream but I knew deep down that this was my reality. I knew our lives would never be the same as soon as we were boarded onto the cattle train. For days we were cramped together inside the wooden box with hardly and food or water. Along with that, no one was allowed to leave because all of us would have been shot and killed if someone did. There was a crazy woman who shouted of flames nearly the whole trip, she was crazy and frightening. When we finally reached our destination, everyone saw the flames that the lady had screamed about. While waiting to get sent off into different directions, we learned that people under eighteen and over forty years old were to be burned in the crematorium like some sort of soul-less beasts. Babies were thrown into pits of fire like rubber dolls and tall blank building stood up on either side of the flames. I knew that I had to stay close to my father at all times and when we reached the doctor, we lied and were sent off in the direction to the left, opposite of my mother and sister. Ordered to march by guards, were transfered to different barracks until we finally ended up in our concentration camp. I dont know what is to come but my father is a changed man.

Evan Selden 10/20/08 I cant believe its finally over. I knew somehow that I wouldnt see my mother or siter again, but my father. My father has been with me the whole time and then not too long ago, he died and the doctors couldnt do anything for him. I could never thank him enough for getting us through this all, i couldnt have done it without him. All that running, all of that cold bitter wheather, all of the malnurishing, I cant believe he made it that far considering how old he was. We both should have been burned alive when we first arrived in the camps, but we didnt, we kept on going no matter what and now I have a story to tell. I have decided to move to America or at least out of Germany thats for sure.
