Out at the platforms the second layer was ready, and three more groups were ordered to climb up. The SS men followed and began putting their pistols to the backs of victims’ skulls.

When the noise of the second group of shots was heard in the enclosure, panic broke out. Women began shrieking. There was a commotion among the men. No. 339’s friends looked at him to see what he would do. In the excitement over the shooting, he ran.

He made the door all right. As he ran up the stairs he heard the sounds of footsteps behind him, and he tried to run faster. Then he realized that there were many footsteps, and that he was afraid of being followed by only one guard, or at most two. He looked back. Something he had not foreseen had happened. Many other prisoners were following his lead.
