Franz Stangl: Zitate auf Englisch

“He was a Dragoner (one of the imperial elite regiments). Our lives were run on regimental lines. I was scared to death of him.”

“Cargo. They were cargo. I think it started the day I first saw the Totenlager in Treblinka. I remember Wirth standing there, next to the pits full of blue-black corpses. It had nothing to do with humanity-it couldn't have; it was a mass-a mass of rotting flesh. Wirth said, 'What shall we do with this garbage?”

I think unconsciously that started me thinking of them as cargo.
