My Day at the Holocaust Museum

January 20, 2009

Though we could not take pictures, I can still tell you about my experience.  While in the Holocast, many people knew that a lot of people died but what some people did not know was for instance, Anne Frank if she was able to stay in hiding for two more days would have been saved by the Royal British Army.

Also, the only surviving member of Anne Franks family that left alive was Anne Franks father Otto.

Dr. Josef Mengele cut up bodies of young twins usually around the age of four and five, he would test on them then later, and then kill them. There was not only men doctors there was one female doctor, her name was Dr. Herta Oberheuser.  How Dr. Herta Oberheuser contributed was that she made wounds, then rubbed foriegn objects such as wood, rusty nails, slivers of glass, dirt or sawdust into the wounds.  What I learned from the Holocaust musuem was hatred is a bad thing to have, because if you hate someone, in the long run even some hate is a little too much.

Please come back and read my blog, also comments.  Thank you.
