(76) DEPOSITION OF ELGA SCHIESSL (German, aged 37)

2. At Auschwitz I was a member of the camp band and this band always used to have to play when selections for the gas chamber were being made. Either when they were made from new arrivals to the camp at the station or at other times in the camp. I name the following as responsible as selectors for sending many thousands to the gas chambers: - Klein (photo. 9-5), Hoessler (photo. 9-3), and other members of the S.S., whose names were Rohde, König, Mengele, Tauber, Kramer, Schwartzerber; amongst the S.S. women were S.S. women Volkenrath (photo. 22-6), Drechsler and Hasse and Mandel.

4. I also frequently saw S.S. woman Juana Bormann, whom I identify as No. 3 on photograph 19, beat women prisoners with a rubber stick.
