day of Hitler's camp: Two soldiers probably between the ages of 14 and 17 entered my classroom the day before. they talked of Hitler and all of his promises and what we should get if we joined him in German ways; if we joined the Nazis. out of my class of 20, already 13 had signed up. i, however was scared and against Hitler's ways. that night i lay awake in my bed. i heard someone at our door, footsteps and someone with a deep rumbling voice talking with my father. then, the door closed and i didn't hear anyone dowstairs. i finally fell asleep. the next morning, no one was home. i searched my house fully, but mother, father, and my baby brother Dexter had all dissapeared. i never found them again and later that day, the same two soldiers in my classroom came and took me to a paramilitary camp to become "German". the food at the camp was hard and old. the people were cold, crying, and hungry. most of the people there were about 14 years old; my age. they worked us from 5:30 until dinner time. we had five meals a day, but they were simple: bread, water or grape jiuce, a slab of beef, and some sort of vegatable. i stayed at that camp for 5 years and then went to a different more advanced and better conditioned one. then, i was "German". i wasn't really, but Hitler's followers had grown from 9% to nearly 68%. i, of course, had to pretend to be a follower. and, besides, Hitler wasn't done yet. he was determined to get everyone on his side against the Jews, and so far he was winning. Hitler the madman, Hitler the God, Hitler the killer, Hitler the idol. whatever the reason, wherever he is now, whenever you feel as if you are with Hitler, turn back. he is the evil of the sun and moon. he is the devil of everyone on this Earth, yet he was most often compared to Christ. do not love him, for he is not one to love, but one to hate.
