Seleccionadas para los experimentos de Mengele... una idea absurda las salvó - AUSCHWITZ 1942

She surrendered to the Nazis, believing her sacrifice would save her family. Two days later, she watched her sister walk through the same gates of hell. 💔 This is the true story of Rena Kornreich, prisoner number 716 on the first women's transport to Auschwitz in March 1942. Along with her sister Danka, she survived three years and forty-one days in the death camp. They were selected for Dr. Mengele's experiments. All the others died. They escaped by doing something so daring that even today it's hard to believe. Based on the book "Rena's Promise: A Story of Sisters in Auschwitz" by Rena Kornreich Gelissen and Heather Dune Macadam. Rena was the only survivor of the first transport to write her memoirs. Sometimes, the hardest promise to keep is the one that keeps us alive. May her memory be a blessing. ✨ #TrueStory #HeartsAtWar #RenaKornreich #TwoSisters #Survival #Courage #NeverAgain #1942
