Scenes of applying horror were witnessed by the American Troops as they went from building to building. Thousands of starved cerpses were piled nearly to the roof awaiting cremating and thousands of living went crazy with joy as they saw dough boys crash in their prison. Many of the prisoners immediately sized their SS tortures and killed them throwing their bodies in to the most surrounding the camp. Prisoners at the electric fence cheer the Americans. Some of them wear the striped blue and white prison garb. These are the ones dur fer crematorium.
