(33) DEPOSITION OF VERA FISCHER (Slovak, aged 23)

2. At Auschwitz in July, 1942, Volkenrath (photo. 22-6) was an S.S. Blockführerin of the hospital there. One day I had pains and could not stand upright, so she beat me so severely that I was in hospital for three weeks.

4. At Auschwitz an S.S. woman, whom I identify as Bormann (photo. 19-3), used to be in charge of women prisoners working outside the camp. She used to have a large dog (? wolf-hound) which she used to set on the women, if they became weak and unable to work properly. Many of them were taken to hospital and died of blood poisoning. Many others were sent to Block 25, which always meant that they went to the gas chamber.
