NEVER FORGET

68 years ago, US Army units entered the Buchenwald concentration camp. This is what they saw:

Story to Remember:
In the 1920s and 1930s Germany was the most advanced society on Earth in terms of science, technology, philosophy and the arts; every single German Jew who went to the concentration camps was a full citizen of that country - many of whom served their country honorably in the First World War - all of whom arrived in those death camps by obediantly complying with the laws of their land.

Lesson learned:
When the Government says "We are hear to help you," - NEVER trust!
