Buchenwald, April 1945.
At the moment of liberation, the survivors marched on their journey through the camp, experiencing the most extreme events after years of deprivation. Parmi eux, I, my Chancellor, was threatened with a relaxation before he left me. However, he must rise above his shoulder straps and set out on his own.

Finally, the portal opens. Each movement stubbornly affirmed a  determination  and  solidarity  that undertook the camp, believing in doing so. This confession has lost its own power: it testifies to a  faithful loyalty ,  compassion  , and  humanitarian participation .

The prisoner later confirmed:  “I have more powers, but I have not left the eyes until I find them.”

En important, my friend, it gives their  dignity  to all. The franchise of the grille is not denied in one fell swoop: it is the symbol of the  capacity for survival , of  resistance  , and of the intact strength of the human pledge. In the milieu of the remnants of cruelty, this simple act was elevated to a solemn declaration: life, filial piety, and loyalty could not be exhausted and defy the forces that destined doom.
