But the equation changed abruptly when Mr. Piechowski's friend learned he was going to be killed and suggested they flee the camp in an SS car. His friend had access to the vehicle While Piechowski, who was working in the warehouse, knew where they could find a stash of uniforms and weapons that would allow them to pass as SS officers.]]> 2022-04-03 18:02:44 UTC https://padlet.com/27haydena1/n3woyrikt6uzvrt0/wish/2127382804 Citations 27haydena1 https://padlet.com/27haydena1/n3woyrikt6uzvrt0/wish/2128619951 https://www.theguardian.com/world/2011/apr/11/i-escaped-from-auschwitz
