Recommended: Special treatment of jews during world war 2

Brandon-Hi, my brother Frank and I are about to tell you, about the walk home from school that ended our lives.

Chris- Fivel and I were upset with each other the day of October 15, 1939. We pouted at each other the whole way to school. We usually got along. But that day we weren't. The school day was fine until the princeable interrupted our class and turned on the radio. It was one of Hitlers ridiculous speeches. We didn't really know what Hitler was up to this time.

Brandon- So we ignored it. Little did we know it was about the invasion of our town to round up all the jews. That morning was the last we saw of our parents. They had their own steel mill, and that was the first target for the NAZI's. Besides this we attended Tillberg private school and grew up in Fankvurg Germany. We where pretty wealthy.

Chris- Fivel quite babaling on lets get to the story. We started home from school that evening.We saw big green trucks next to the steel-mill so we stopped walking. We thought it was the supply truck until we saw soldiers with guns in hand. We took a look around and then Fivel through me into the woods. I remember him saying Oh god its the NAZI's.

Brandon- We saw genocide right before our eyes. Houses were burnt down and people were killed. IT was terrible. We couldn't go any where or if the NAZI's saw us we would be killed. We slept in the ditch culvert in the woods.We woke up to see body piled up. The town was destroyed. The Nazis where still there.

Chris- The only thing we ate was dry leaves, grass, and bark. We knew we couldn't live for much longer. Fivel lost all feelings in his legs.

Brandon- With feelings in my legs gone I couldn't do much. Then reality hit. We saw the SS coming up the street with search dogs. They must have been fifty feet away when they saw us. We knew we were dead.

Chris- The dog bit Fivel once and I got beat by the soldier. He cussed at us many times. We where drug to a lieutenant. And we where in pure shock. My nose was crushed and bleeding non stop. Fivel's leg was torn apart like he was a dogs chew toy.

Brandon- The lieutenant looked at us lying there and one word came from his mouth: Trash.

  • Cruelty In Elie Wiesel's Night

    275 Words  | 1 Pages

    After reading your novel, Night, I felt a mix of sadness and anger. The cruelty of the Nazi regime to the innocent Jewish people is a crime that cannot be forgotten because, as you said, it is like a victory for the Nazis when their crimes are erased from human memory. One of the most shocking scenes from the novel occurs near the beginning, where babies are being burned by the truckload. Children too young to resist burned alive because they could not work in the camps. I cannot even imagine how it must have felt to the mothers and fathers of those children to watch that. Another shocking scene was when the train was going to WHEEERE, and the dead were thrown out of the train. After suffering and when faced with harsh conditions, people were

    German education in the 1930’s changed dramatically in several ways. First, Hitler was inserted into every classroom. His portrait hung on the wall and “Children were taught to greet each other with ‘Heil Hitler’, swear allegiance to Hitler, and use his name in their prayers” (Bartoletti 40,41). Secondly, two extra classes were added. In Eugenics children were taught to only marry healthy Aryans, discriminating against people of Jewish descent and invalids (Bartoletti 42...

    The warm blood trickled down his chin. It was the first warmth he’d felt in a while. The warmth fell to his hand and he looked at it through his swollen eyes.

  • Nazi Olympics

    605 Words  | 2 Pages

    Theme:     Many events of The Nazi Olympics surround this sporting festival to make it one of the controversial events in sport history. Not only does Mandell cover the 1936 Olympic Games themselves but he gives insight to the history of the modern games, participation by the United States, the role of the games in the Nazi propaganda efforts and portrays heroes and key figures. Mandell wrote about the intersection of sport and politics and how world leaders set the agenda, not the athletes. The Nazi’s used the 1936 Olympic Games as a way to reinforce their political and racial goals. Although they were founded as part of a vision of world peace, the 1936 games became a stage for political disputes.     The Nazi Olympics takes an in depth look at the efforts the Germans made to show the rest of the world that they had again become a powerful nation under the leader of Adolf Hitler. The events that followed the games in Germany, mainly the Holocaust and World War II overshadowed the Berlin games. However, it is very important to note that a world gathering like the Olympics took place in a country that was in the process of eliminating an entire race of people. The games were a huge success in regards to the Nazi regime, they were able to fool the world and prove to Germany that they were a peaceful and stable nation.

  • Nazi Olympics

    2693 Words  | 6 Pages

    The 1936 Olympics in Berlin, also known as the “Nazi Olympics”, was a milestone in the history of the world. All of the attention of the Olympics that year was focused on Adolf Hitler and the Nazis. In 1933, Nazi leader Adolf Hitler became leader of Germany and quickly turned the nation's democracy into a one-party dictatorship. He took thousands of political opponents, holding them without trial in concentration camps. The Nazis also set up a program to strengthen the Germanic Aryan population. They began to exclude all one-half million Jews from the population, and German life. As part of the drive to "purify" and strengthen the German population, a 1933 law permitted physicians to perform forced sterilizations of psychiatric patients and congenitally handicapped persons, Gypsies, and Blacks (Encarta Encyclopedia 1996 [CD-ROM]). The 1936 Olympics in Berlin caused many worries, problems, and questions for America and other countries throughout the world.

  • Friendship and The Boy in the Striped Pajamas

    1716 Words  | 4 Pages

    Director Mark Herman presents a narrative film that attests to the brutal, thought-provoking Nazi regime, in war-torn Europe. It is obvious that with Herman’s relatively clean representation of this era, he felt it was most important to resonate with the audience in a profound and philosophical manner rather than in a ruthlessness infuriating way. Despite scenes that are more graphic than others, the films objective was not to recap on the awful brutality that took place in camps such as the one in the movie. The audience’s focus was meant to be on the experience and life of a fun-loving German boy named Bruno. Surrounding this eight-year-old boy was conspicuous Nazi influences. Bruno is just an example of a young child among many others oblivious of buildings draped in flags, and Jewis...

He had an army, and I had a Remington 270 783 and four clips. The army was made of the best of the best in Germany. I was the best sniper in the USA army. I prayed that I wouldn't be shot. As I looked through the scope I saw General Kirkpatrick’s badge through my scope. The badge was above his heart. I took a deep breath, and shot him right through the heart, then gunshots rang out through the city they saw me. One of the Nazis said “Feuer Fur Fuhrer”. I was holding my head protecting myself from the bricks, and debris. I called for backup, but they said it was too risky. I turned around and

  • Lessons Learned From The Holocaust

    475 Words  | 1 Pages

    The reason why this is so important is so that we, as a world, never make this mistake again. Hitler had so much hate for the Jews, which was a bit ironic because he was a Jew himself and tried very hard to cover up his family’s past. He most likely did this because he was ashamed. So when he came into power he did everything he could do to discriminate against Jews. At first it was a poster here and there, almost like subliminal messaging. As discrimination got worse these messages got harsher and more out there, posters evolved into full blown announcements discriminating against Jews. Hitler essentially brain washed his citizens into thinking that the war was the Jews fault and that they were in debt.
