gestapo barrack
"October 24, 1942. I came out of the
thick woods on the road from Ksiezomiesz and was terrified. I found
myself in front of Gestapo barracks. An officer asked me, in German,
where I was going; I kept saying, in Polish, I don't understand.
Finally, a Polish-speaking guard came to ask me, and I said I was
going to my grandmother's. The officer laughed and waved me on."
