very good pic

Thank you, John, for posting this series. It's important for all of us to remember.

These pictures of Israeli youth was taken in the concentration camp Auschwitz-Birkenau near the city of Krakow in Poland.

We are on the inside of the camp where you see train tracks and arrival ramps. It was here that the Nazis chose the people who would be sent directly to the gas chamber.

In the background you can see the infamous building with the gates of hell.

An interesting series, John - can you tell us where this is? The story I get, is a gathering outside an old concentration camp, and the comparative darkness of the images adds the appropriate atmosphere.
