Ordinarily people 
It suddenly happened, the Germans started rounding up the Jews. 
Lily Klein was 17 years old at the time. She lived in Debrecen, Hungary. 
Because the Germans did not invade the country, she was allowed to 
keep going to school. However when Hungry decided to break off the 
alliance with Germany, German troops invaded and began throwing 
Jews in Concentration camps. 
Lilly Klein said, " After the Germans invaded, everything changed for us. 
We lived in fear of being deported every single day. The sun seemed to 
be forever setting; throwing us into a land that was dark and had no 
hope. " 
"That must have been horrifying, " said the Interviewer. "What 
happened to you next?" 
"Then came the day that my family were rounded up and put in a 
crowded ghetto," said Lilly K. "We were kept there for two months, after 
those 2 months I was put on the train heading to the Auschwitz, the 
death camp. I had no hope after that, like the a team when an opposing 
team seems to almost win a long battle" 
"How did you survive if you were going to Auschwitz?" said the 
Interviewer. 
"My one stoke of luck, was that the Allies had bombed the train tracks 
going to Auschwitz," said Lilly K. "Because train could not get through, 
we were then sent to the Strasshoff concentration camp in Austria. I had 
to work till I was exhausted. There was no food, and those who couldn't
work were killed. We were treated like animals, worse than animals. I 
was almost dead when the camp was freed in April 1945. I was an 
ordinary person before this happened, but by the end I was a victim."
