“A group of ten prisoners from Dachau, I was with them, we hid in the forest to wait for the Americans. The Germans had already left everything behind. We had food but no weapons. For days we could hear bombs exploding around us. We just wanted to survive long enough for the Americans to control the territory. We didn’t want to die. At that point, our prison uniforms were the only things to keep us from being shot on the spot by the Americans. That was all we had. Who would the Americans believe? Real prisoners or guards dressed as prisoners? Those devils might even say we were the Germans. This was our nightmare.”

“...ծառուղու վերջում կանգնած էի ես` անվճռական վարանքին տրված,սևեռուն նայում էի սևակնած սաղարթի մեջ ու ագահ ընչաքաղցությամբ ներշնչում հողմահարության ու նեխումի թաց բուրմունքը,որին ինչ-որ բան արձագանքում ու ողջունում էր իմ մեջ:
Օ՜,ինչ տհաճ համ ուներ կյանք...”
