We vistied Dachau concentration camp while Les was home. The pictures I have posted here are the only pictures I took while there. I didn't feel right taking pictures of a place where such horrible crimes were committed against innocent people. We went to the museum and you just wouldn't believe what those people had to go through. I believe Dachau was the only concentration camp that ran all 12 years of the Nazis era.
This is a picture of the barracks that held up to one thousand prisoners, although they were only built to house a few hundred. There were 33 barracks.
.
This is the gate that all prisoners had to enter through. It is marked with the sentence Arbeit macht frei which means, "Work brings freedom"
This was one of those trips I don't think the boys will ever forget. I leaves an impression on one's soul seeing those things and knowing what happened there.
