Romek Post #3

1) Hearing David Faber speak was phenomenal. He spoke with great emotion and detail, trying to have us picture the torture he experienced. He was someone who truly endured the torture given by the Nazis. I think that he is a very powerful speaker and that everyone will be interested in his story.
2) When David was with the Partisans, he was taken care of, but not pampered. He was put to work, but it was made sure that he survived. the tasks assigned to him were dangerous, and he still survived. I think Romek was proud of him because David had endured all those hardships and came out alive, and proved that he was strong.
3) I think the Gestapo spared David's life and returned him to the ghetto because he didn't know anything, and because he wanted him to suffer for a long time instead of just rest in peace. The Gestapo is very mean, and the Nazis will torture the Jewish at any point they can. He thinks that it is worth it to wait for David to suffer.
