Yes History is quite gruesome. Little film snatches would show the actual state of the poor souls as they stood looking through the Barbed wire as they were about to be released.🦋

Being born in April 1945, every ten years of my life I am reminded of the horrors of that war and the Nazi regime {2025 this year, 80 years since it ended} Over my life I have also read books of true accounts of former inmates of the Concentration camps and articles AND I lived many years in the Eastern Suburbs of Sydney which is where many thousands of Jewish folk fled to. Are we about to witness first hand another purge; this time a South American racial purge? I also had many elderly patients in the hospital where I worked with the numbers tattooed on their arms. Please, nobody ever try to tell me it didn't happen.

How horrifying it must have been for that poor woman. The Nazis were the Devil when it came to torturing innocent people. I'm praying that a certain leader and his lunatic puppet master aren't headed for the same type of dictatorship. On another note, I am also an MHS graduate, but my graduating year was 30 years later in 1983, and my school was Mazama High School in Klamath Falls, Oregon, not Mossy High School, although I would have loved to attend with you. 👩🎓

Thank you so much for that story. It seems that whenever we ignore history, we become victims of it. I applaud you for not being afraid, to tell the truth. It's never too late to stand up against injustice. Our elders experienced some truly horrific events. They shared because they wanted to stop evil from rising again.
