Assignment: Truck Driver in the 120^th Evacuation Hospital

 

Most vivid memory: the sight of the dead stacked like cord wood on metal wheeled wagons. S secondly, would be the survivors, how thin and hopeless in appearance.

 

I do not believe the experiences at Buchenwald have affected my life.  I later had the chore of working out of Dechau and Urauthausen.  Later in Korea as a combat engineer and in Vietnam twice. I almost became inured with death. The scope of deaths and dead in later years was nothing like at Buchenwald, however.
