Holocaust

Author: Elliot /


The year is 1944. The war in Germany was very intense. I am an American soldier. We have seen thousands of horrible things. We have seen stuff that we didn’t expect to see. American soldiers fought in Germany for about two years before the war began coming to an end. We moved from town to town clearing homes and the streets of German Nazis. About 300,000 German soldiers surrendered and were captured.

After years of fighting and the war coming to an end, we were just sent on patrol duty to scout the land for things we missed. As you see in the picture above we missed stuff like this the first time around. In this picture there are a bunch of captured Jews that didn’t make through the of war. We were on patrol we came across these camps. These camps are being called German concentration camps which held the Jews. The people were starved and weak with no hope of living; it is just sickening. As American soldiers we did what we could to help these prisoners by giving them food, water and clothing. After stumbling across something like this we knew that fighting this war was right.
