Decent Essays
If you are reading this, I would probably be dead. I am now being held in Plotzensee prison in Berlin. It will just be a couple of days before my execution. I assembled an anti-Nazi propaganda with two of my best friends that can inform people what the Nazis are hiding. I just don’t understand why the Nazis kept on expanding the war and why they spread so much hate against the Jewish people. I already saw my Jewish classmate’s dad got killed by an SA because he was cleaning his store window. My brothers and I would always argue with my mother’s boyfriend Hugo about the Nazis’ rules, and restrictions. Also at the rights of the Jewish people. Everything was fine until one friend that helped me got caught and turn me to the Gestapo's so all three

When they finished their work, the men from the Gestapo began theirs. Without passion or haste, they shot their prisoners, who were forced to approach the trench on by one."

This happened often throughout Europe, as many Jewish and non-Jewish communities decided not to believe their fate when it came to Hitler 's mass plan of destruction.…

    Dear Mutter und Vater (Mother and Father), during the time I have been stationed at the Auschwitz concentration camp, I have witnessed abominations far beyond what I expected I would see when I came to the camp, and even though I have not taken part in the cruel actions towards the prisoners, I still feel guilty and responsible for the prisoners well being. Of course, I want the Germans to take over the world and win the war, but I was not aware of what actions the Germans were taking. I feel it is possible to win the war and take over the world without treating people so horribly. I am aware that if I were to stand up for the prisoners or do not follow my duty, I could join the prisoners and die, so I am compelled to follow the orders I will likely shortly receive…
