"There were SS officers on the ramp, some with dogs, and many with staffs and clubs in their hands. While the groups were being arranged, people were beaten and had dogs set at them. At the time I was 11, but my father made me say I was 16. I didn’t understand why I was supposed to lie, but I said I was 16 when asked. I was quite a big boy and could pass for a 16-year-old. In this way I found myself with the group of men. (…) People were scared and terrorised. When we were ordered to undress, when our hair was shaved, and we got dressed in the camp rags from striped material – nobody asked about anything anymore, they were happy just to be alive."
(Hungarian Jewish Survivor Geza Schein)
