Auschwitz, Poland
Soldiers of the 100th Infantry Division of the Red Army entered the camp around 9 am on Saturday, 27 January 1945.
Roughly 7,000 prisoners are found alive.
In the time from 1940 to 1945 an estimated 1,080,000–1,085,000 were killed within its walls.
79 years since the liberation. 35 years since I first learned of it in school. 35 years since I first saw pictures of the dead. 35 years since I learned in detail what humans are capable of doing to other human beings. 79 years and facism becomes more and more fasionable again all around the world. I'm in my core an optimist, but on days like today I'm scared shitless due to the fact, that history has the habit to repeat itself. Humans have the habit to forget.
I dont't.
„Ihr seid nicht schuld an dem, was war, aber verantwortlich dafür, dass es nicht mehr geschieht. “
"You are not responsible for what happened. But you are responsible for it not happening again."
(Max Mannheimer 1920-2016, Holocaust survivor)

When Steven Spielberg first showed John Williams (the composer of the film) a cut of this film, Williams was so moved he had to take a walk outside for several minutes to collect himself.
Upon his return, he told Spielberg he deserved a better composer.
Spielberg replied, "I know, but they're all dead."
Today commemorate International Holocaust Remembrance Day. The Holocaust is the name given to the systematic murder of six million Jews by the Nazi regime during the Second World War.
The date marks the anniversary of the liberation of the concentration camp at Auschwitz on 27th January 1945. Auschwitz was liberated by soldiers of the 100th Infantry Division and the 60th Army of the 1st Ukrainian Front. What greeted them as they entered the gates of the largest of Auschwitz's three main camps, Birkenau, was a vision of hell.
For the dead, and the living, we must bear witness. We remember and we must never forget. Never again! 🕯️

Buffalo Soldier Willie Claude “Bill” Dawson (December 6, 1914 - January 17, 2023) was born in Roberta, Georgia. He was the youngest child of Freeman and Elvira Dawson. The family moved to St. Louis. He was active in the Boy Scouts and served on the junior usher board. He attended grade school and Sumner High School in St. Louis.
He says faith, family, and community have always been important to him. But staying active is the key to longevity. He has certainly done that.
He was a member of Lane Tabernacle C.M.E Church for more than 90 years, where he sang in several choirs, ushered, and held multiple official roles. He was a member of the Male Chorus for 24 years and president for 20 of those years. He says he felt truly blessed when the members of the Chorus honored him by renaming the group the “Willie C. Dawson” Male Chorus.
He was happily married to his wife Doris for 61 years, until her passing. The couple raised three children, and have two grandchildren and one great-grandson.
In the summer, his house was famous for having the largest and prettiest flower garden in the neighborhood. During the holidays, he was recognized for his elaborate Christmas decorations.
A veteran of WWII, he served his country as a Buffalo Soldier, a member of the 92nd Infantry Division, and he fulfilled overseas duty in Italy for 17 months.
At 85, he was still delivering Meals on Wheels to recipients who were often much younger than him.
At 103, he was selected to throw out the first pitch at a St. Louis Cardinals baseball game. He lived independently until his 100th birthday. #africanhistory365 #africanexcellence

A charge of light it's might for right by Cliffather Via Flickr: WALL OF TEXT! Wildstar Junius aka Will Jr (Wildstar One) in DRAGON BALL XENOVERSE 2_2018 is the said legendary Century Childe; the 100th firstborn grandson of the royal bloodline the Patriarch primogenitor, Wildestaar Savyer.
Will Jr.'s bones are different (I was inspired by Wolverine and NOT the book of Daniel of the KJV during the '80s). Thanks to the war, there weren't many obstetricians on the battlefield. Wilma, having battlefield experience and the "mind link" for battle infantries, tried to remain in the field as long as she could. In the late 24 Century(Earth time) and on another solar system, An obstetrician specialist was assigned to watch Wilma.
The female obstetrician would give Wilma Lembas-like rations which include vitamins for the twins. Assassins infiltrated Wilma's rations supply adding ingredients to lock onto embryos. The poison designed to kill Will Jr. and his twin sister Wilene was ingredients of three metals: Gold, Silver, and Copper in low doses. The Assassins knew to kill Sue would be useless because the enemy can resurrect her. But the embryos cannot be resurrected. A broken-hearted telepath would be more efficient in their plans.
The three weeks embryos Wilona, who Wilma was carrying for her best friend Leanna, proved resistant to the poison. Wilene didn't survive and the four weeks embryo Will Jr. was dying. My M.C. and his sisters-in-law attempted to save Jr's life, using mechanical science, magic, and empowered healing to transmute his bones to become techno-organic(See Marvel's T-O virus & DNA nanobiology ). Will Jr's head is made of techno-organic gold, ribs & limbs are made of techno-organic Silver and his spine/feet/hands are made of techno-organic Copper making Jr heavier than his peers.

Memories from Stalingrad:
Part of the memoirs of Josef Goblirsch who fought assigned to the 54th Jäger Regiment of the 100th Jäger Division: “The first action that our regiment had to undertake was the conquest of the unique Hill 102 that dominated all of Stalingrad, the Mamayev Kurgan. We had taken this height, crowned by two cylindrical water towers to the south of the highest point, on September 14, but it was lost to the Soviets again on September 16. Now it was the renewed objective of our Division. We knew it would be a tall order against a hardened and untold enemy. We knew his rigorous way of fighting from many previous encounters.
At 03:00 on September 27, preparations began, and at 05:00 a preparatory barrage was unleashed by our artillery, which the Soviets immediately answered with heavy defensive fire. A salvo from Stalin's organ landed in a ravine killing fifteen Jäger troops and wounding 100 men from two neighboring companies. There were only minor injuries in my unit. The silent conduct of wounded or dying comrades only impressed me at the beginning of the war, no more. At 0630 hrs our Regiment attacked. The first target was Hill 102 immediately north of us. It had been a favorite excursion spot for the city's population in earlier times. From this commanding height almost the entire city and shipping on the Volga could be controlled. The platoons had been assigned to the Jäger Company led by me now attached to the 2nd Battalion, 54th Jäger Regiment. After heavy losses, we advanced only 200 meters. Casualties increased, but around 0900 hrs we reached the first objective, a ravine about 100 meters from the water towers. The incessant Soviet mortar fire kept us upside down: Stukas and shelling did little good. At 1:00 p.m. they ordered us to barricade ourselves.
Stiff resistance from the Soviet 269th Infantry Regiment prevented any further advance. Huddled in shell craters and trenches abandoned by the Soviets, tending to small wounds, we eagerly awaited the coming of darkness. At night we saw our end drawing near. Ten enemy bombers in the east were heading for our positions. Suddenly Luftwaffe fighters appeared and shot down half of them in less time than it takes to count. The rest moved away, still with their bombs, and disappeared over the Volga which we would have had a good view of if we had dared to raise our heads above the parapet of the shell crater in which we hid. Our own artillery did not help us in our situation. Some members of my unit had fallen, others were wounded. The medic assistants were overworked and exhausted just like all of us: shooting, jumping, digging, shouting orders through the heat of battle. As night fell we were relieved by a reinforced Jäger company to refresh our staff and our spirits. The wheeled vehicle platoon had been reduced to ten exhausted men, only 30% of its authorized strength. The next day the remnants of my unit rested in the barracks behind the first staging rooms on the road to Gumrak.
We learned that the slopes of Hill 102 facing the Volga and the city quarter behind it had come under a very heavy air attack at 0630 hrs. Stukas launched with sirens blaring, hundreds of bombs dropped from He-111 bomb bays. Our own artillery fired incessantly over our heads at targets on Hill 102 and the railway embankment to the east. After a long rocket barrage they heard infantry fire and also hand grenades, but despite the greatest effort accompanied by heavy casualties, neither the water towers nor the hill fell.
Two days later I received woefully inexperienced reinforcements as the battle for Hill 102 drew near and the northern section of the railway station continued with undiminished ferocity. It was mainly Croats from our division who were able to advance to the railway embankment east of Hill 102 the next day. Soon our entire battalion was disbanded. The soldiers of my company were totally exhausted, the wheeled vehicle section was reduced to ten men. We were now ready to support the 2nd Battalion in their attack on the northern section of the main railway station. The objective of this attack was to encircle the Soviets defending Hill 102...
