The trip to the concentration camps for the Jews and the undesirable peoples was abominable. They were put in cattle cars jammed in by the hundreds. They had a pail for the entire car full of people to relieve themselves. They were not given food and drink. The cars stunk badly and were extremely hot. They tried to sit but sometimes that was not possible. There were no windows in many of the rail cars but some had windows with welded iron bars. These windows were small and high up. It took days to get to the concentration camps. They thought they were being taken to labor camps to live and thrive. They were shocked to find out they either had to labor in hard situations or they were exterminated.
