Arbeit macht frei

When arrived in Camps, when you were motioned to the right you were spared, you were motioned to the left you got killed immediately. When you were spared you got kind of like a make over, you lost all your hair and got different cloths. The greeting “Arbeit macht frei” , but it was the total opposite if you worked you died of exhaustion, no food and no water. When Jews died, sometimes Rats would come and eat them. The S.S. were criminals. The most virtual death sentence was being Ill and they used roll calls as a punishment. “Arbeit macht frei” means “working sets you free”.
