These are slave laborers in the Buchenwald concentration camp near Weimar; many had died from malnutrition when U.S. troops of the 80th Division entered the camp. The very ill man lying at the back on the lower bunk was thought to be Max Hamburger, but this is probably not true. Second row, seventh from left is Elie Wiesel. Photograph taken 5 days after rescue.

"IN THE MOST HORRIBLE TIMES during the Holocaust, we used to sit and talk to each other, the women, hungry, cold — all the women used to say, ‘Please don’t forget us… If you survive, tell the world what happened’."
