a Slovakian Jewish prisoner at Auschwitz says:

“When they opened the train carriages and forced us out, they shouted at us immediately. They were screaming in German. They were SS men who were dealing with us. We had to stand in line. Men had to step out first, then women with children, and then old people. I looked at my father, here, and I saw a sad look on his face. This is my last memory of him.”


Why would the SS soldiers begin separating the people arriving in from the trains? What was their reasoning?

Answer:

They divided the groups into two. Who could work and not.

Explanation:

When the prisoners would get to Auschwitz, the women with children or pregnant would go off to a line with elders and would go off into the ovens. They would not be fit for work and they were no use to the German cause. The men, and sometimes able women, would go off into two other lines, seprated by gender to the barracks where they would spend their days working as slaves for the Germans.
