My memories of German crimes

It was summer. I was standing in front of the gate of my house. At that [moment] three trucks drove up. There were Germans in two of them and Poles in one. The Germans began to disperse people so that no one would see what they were about to do. They ordered the people they brought to get out of the cars. There were 11 of them. They had very sad faces and bowed heads. They were severely depressed because they knew that they were going to die.

When they all got out of the truck, the Germans took them in threes to the wall by St. Adalbert’s Church and shot them – no one knew why, maybe because they were Poles. I saw it all with my own eyes.
