“Prisoners arrived in Auschwitz on cattle cars, and when they disembarked, they were told to leave their possessions behind on the train. Once they stood on the platform, the prisoners were brutally divided into two lines. Those who looked able-bodied and were able to work were sent to one line, while children, the elderly and the infirm were sent to the other, and were earmarked to be killed at the gas chambers.”
