that's right nic i'm standing at the entrance of the original auschwitz camp auschwitz one as it's now normally known and you know this is a place where thousands were incarcerated and many people were murdered but 75 years after the liberation of auschwitz incredibly enough some of the survivors who experienced what this place was like under the nazis are still coming back every year we believe around $200.00 auschwitz survivors of different nationalities from countries around the world many of them jews will be coming here and want to tell their stories remind people of the brutality of the horrors of auschwitz and warn future generations about what the semitism is and what the holocaust was and d.-w. had the opportunity within the last few days to speak to and survive or he won't be coming this year she lives in israel and for her the pain of what she experienced here. too deep but she still wants to let the world know of her suffering and says. this is me in the back. of my number 73200 and i wish i had to show that twice daily. counting. pin. number then to protect $1100.00. legs
