Description:
“Never shall I forget that night, the first night in camp, that turned my life into one long night seven times sealed… Never shall I forget the small faces of the children whose bodies I saw transformed into smoke under a silent sky. Never shall I forget those flames that consumed my faith forever” (34).Added to timeline:
