We were forced into a line and then shoved into a cattle wagon. There were at least 100 to 150 of us crammed into this small space. I felt like an animal and to them, the German soldiers, I was considered as vermin. When people questioned what was happening, officers informed us that we were being relocated to a ‘better’ place where there were more jobs available. I knew that they were all lying. There was no ‘better’ place . I began to scream, ‘I’m not a Jew, I’m not a Jew’. It was useless. The German officers had already bolted shut the cabin doors. There was no room in the cabin to sit down. If you fell, you were trampled to death. Within one hour, an old woman had collapsed to the ground. She never rose.
