Night section 3- Kevin Ornelas-2

In section 3 Elie and his father were separated from the rest of their family. The officers command them all to form ranks of five men on the left and women on the right. After they make ranks of five an inmate interrogates Elie and his father and tells them what to say when Dr. Mengele interrogated them. Elie tells him that he is an 18-year-old farmer that is in good health. By then they were already separated from the rest of their family. An inmate who had scared them told them that they would be heading toward the crematorium. They started to prey in a different language. As they were getting closer they were getting more frightened. But luckily they were herded into the barracks. In the barracks inmates had ordered them to strip down naked. Then they were sent to the barber who shaved them bald. They all had to sleep naked in the cold that night. They were forced to run to some other barracks were they were disinfected and had taken hot showers quickly. They were thrown shirts pants and jackets. Elie had been so scared that he had lost track of how long they were there. They had found out a while later that they were in the Auschwitz concentration camp. They were served very nasty soup and when his father had a colic attack and asked directions to the wash room he was hit and crawled back to his spot, with Elie slowly losing hope and his faith in god….
