routine. Going from one camp to the other, several times a day, we had,
each time, to go through them.” 41 And “in Buchenwald, everybody had
to go to the showers. Even the sick, who were instructed to go last.” 42
He does not acknowledge, or perhaps he did not then know, that the
clothing given up by prisoners was treated in gas chambers with Zyklon
B, the German substitute for DDT, which was used by the Americans
and British to combat lice and bed bugs.
These gas chambers were designed to hold clothing. Metal cans containing
Zyklon B pellets were opened automatically (with machines, not
manually) to release the gas. Exhaust fans drove the gas out of the
chambers when the cycle was completed and the clothing fully fumigated.
Today such gas chambers can be seen at Dachau where their operation
is described in detail.
But these gas chambers were not homicidal gas chambers; they were
fumigation machines for clothing. Right next to the fumigation machines
at Dachau are two rooms where prisoners disrobed, handing back
their clothes to be put into the machines, and then waited. The third
room is the shower room where, like Wiesel and others have described,
prisoners were given hot showers. In the next room they were given
other clothes that had already been cleaned or at least fumigated.
But the shower room at Dachau has been altered. The ceiling has
been lowered; the shower heads and pipes have been removed or covered,
and phony showerheads have been stuck in the ceiling. The United
States government used to claim that this room was a homicidal gas
chamber where prisoners were murdered on an industrial scale. Today
visitors to Dachau are still told that this is a homicidal gas chamber, but
that it was never used. The question the reader of Night might well ask
is where did Dachau prisoners take hot showers that were part of every
camp’s mandatory hygiene routine as described by Wiesel? Are we to
believe that the Nazis gave Dachau prisoners no showers after getting
them to disrobe and after fumigating their clothes? Why would the Nazis
lower the ceiling in the shower room and stick phony showerheads
into it? Could it be that the Americans modified the real shower room at
Dachau to create a homicidal gas chamber because they had none to
show to the mass media and to the congressional commission visiting
various camps in Germany at that time?
