THE GATHERING OF EVIDENCE

THE CAMP AS EVIDENCE THE GATHERING OF EVIDENCE The first U.S. Army photographers reached the camp three days after the liberation of Buchenwald on 11 April 1945. The pictures they took were published all over the world and have continued to shape the public’s image of the concentration and extermination camps to this day. They also came to serve as evidence of the National Socialist crimes. The war correspondents were as shocked as the American soldiers by the conditions they discovered in Buchenwald.

What a reality!!! Retired MD of a bank after 5 years of retirement came to a branch in his city to collect money.  All those working in the bank are new. He introduces himself as the former MD of that bank. On being introduced, an officer offers him tea and curiously asks, "How is your day going after the opportunity?" The former MD said, “The first 2/1 year felt very bad. It was hard to adjust to the new situation.  Now I understand, after the game of claim is over, the king and the soldier are put in the same box. Position, post, title, honor-showkat are all temporary. People's love is permanent, which has to be achieved by good behavior.  Time explains the account of whose life! We want to understand this truth while we have time, don't we? #Copied
