And every train had the minimum...
of 6,000 people.
So one train went in.
Then train came back empty.
The second train went in.
Came back. Took about an hour or so.
Also empty. And then the train I was in...
started to roll...
into Treblinka extermination camp.
When we got there, the door would open...
with hollering...
from Germans, Ukrainians...
and the Jewish people that worked for them.
There was, like I was saying, chosen people--
the one which they were chosen...
to wear the blue armbands.
They could live little longer.
Their job was to take out the people from the train...
and to take them...
to the main undressing place,
which was outside, not inside.
The women and the small children...
were lead to the barrack-- very large barrack--
And the women and the children, they undressed over there.
But the men, they undressed themself or were naked,
and they were waiting in groups to be led...
into the gas chambers.
And when we went to that place, very big place,
we undressed ourself.
All of a sudden,
they came on order to take out few people,
about six, seven people.
And one of mein relative,
he knew a man from Warsaw which was wearing the red band.
The red band was very high society,
accordingly,
because they had a chance to live better,
to eat better and to live longer then.
What they did, they prepared people to the gas chamber.
They surrounded them.
They give them orders how to undress,
what to do with their clothes, what to do with their shoes,
with their belongings, like gold, silver, other things.
That was their job.
So one of my relative knew this guy.
And he said, "Come out."
And they took out a cousin of mine,
myself and two more.
From 18,000 people, they took out five people.
And I was in that group from the five people.
And the others asked to stay on the side...
until they finished up with the whole group.
And from this day, we were in Treblinka...
in the working place-- working command.
