Never Forget

Thus reads the memorial plaque enscripted on a Jewish menorah at Dachau, a ‘prison camp’ established on the outskirts of Munich by the Nazi regime. Here, we were told, the political prisoners were imprisoned, along with those deemed inferior to the aryan race. There were camps all over Germany and Poland, each with a specific purpose. Beyond tragic what occurred here in the absence of humanity. So much of what we saw brought to mind the genocide in Cambodia. I took only three pictures in this sad place…a plaque remembering the liberators of Dachau…the USA🙏🇺🇸, the menorah memorializing all who perished here, and a depiction of a liberated prisoner.
