I once spoke with a Holocaust Survivor who was 12 years old at the time. She told me that she had been in Auschwitz and had the marks on her arm to prove it. When I asked her how she survived the ordeal she told me that she had survived only because of her age. When the Russian Armies came through, anyone still alive in a Nazi Concentration Camp over the age of 20 was believed to be a Nazi Sympathizer and was put to death. That is something you will not read in the History books.
