BOR OP#3

1. My reaction to hearing David speak was very emotional. All I could think of was myself and my family and I thought about what I would do i f I were in his shoes. I also felt that from hearing a true Holocaust survivor speak, I now really understand how hate full the Nazis were and how they would torture and hurt people. Before I thought no they wouldn't hurt little baby's and children but that was very far from the truth I found out that they would treat children just as bad as they did adults. 2. I think that Romek was proud of David because he was doing some of what Romek did. David was helping the Jews secretively just like Romek was in the underground. I also feel that this whole thing was kind of a scary experience for David because he was away from home with people that he didn't even know and he had to put his life on the line to help the partisans and also the Jews. 3. I think that the Gestapo didn't kill David because he probably knew that that was the most torture they could have done to him was have to watch his brother die. Also he knew that David would suffer more in the ghetto where he would be starved to death. Or maybe even the Gestapo knew that there were concentration camps and David would probably be a good worker and even suffer more their if he was taken.
