hey I'm sorry about lats night i saw general cascade out side. he is the meanest guard in the camp. if he saw me awake he would hang me. i don't enjoy his company very much but then again nobody does. last Thursday he beet Mrs. Labow and sent here to a special camp. herhusband is tragically torn apart. last weekhe almost got caught crying at night. earlier today father explained to me were they sent her im not sure what a gas chamber is but father said Mrs. labow is no more. that is horrible, she was a great friend of fathers.
let me tell you about my family. father's name is yun he is 44 years old. mother and my sister were sent of to ravensbruck an all girls concentration camp. mothers name was Aleda she was 41 the last time i saw her. my sister's name is Manda she was 16 the last time i saw her. my brother Andrew stayed with father and i. he is 13 so he is bigger and stronger than me. the 2nd month we were here he took four punches from a guard and didn't even cry. I'm glad he didn't if you cry the guards hang you.
i have to go i promise to write tommarow.
