Auschwitz: 60th anniversary of liberation
Isabelle Hontebeyrie
French survivors of the Nazi death camp at Auschwitz have gathered at Paris City Hall for a ceremony marking the 60th anniversary of its liberation and to recount the horrors they witnessed. "How can one describe the cold, the hunger, the beatings, the suffering, the screams, the fear, the filth, the misery, the horror, the gas chamber, death?" asked General Andre Rogerie as he recounted being deported at the age of 20 to Auschwitz and his subsequent ordeal.
