Hitler was eventually wounded in the line of battle and while he was getting fixed up in the hospital he had heard that the Germans had surrendered and he blamed some of it on the Jews. Hitler then started ranting on about it and people joined in and Hitler had joined the Nazi party and eventually becoming the dictator and started the persecution and later on the execution of Jews.

He couldn’t save everyone, but the ones he did save are very grateful that they got to live to see the sun another day. Babies were burned in fires like they were nothing, families were separated and never got to see each other, the weak were killed while the strong were used for labor.

After a long journey, they finally arrived at another camp, and Elie’s father becomes ill with dysentery.

He wants his son to know that all people involved in the war deserved to be honored and remembered, the ones who died more so than the ones who lived. This quote describes the empathy and the love that the fellow soldiers have for another and shows the traits which John Bradley is trying to show his son and people around him. Another detail that helps shows positivity is looking into the characters personal lives, like what Harlon, one of the veterans, said about his wife, “Picking a girl is like picking a flower from the garden, you only pick the best,”(Bradley 224).

It is basically Survival of the Fittest, as the weak are selected to die and the strong continue to work.

Elie did not want the spoon and knife because it was a sign of his father giving up on life. “Here, take this knife,” he said.

teve Goodier once wrote, “My scars remind me that I did indeed survive my deepest wounds.” Night by Elie Wiesel is a memoir about Elies life during The Holocaust. He was a young boy when he was taken from his home in Sighet, Transylvania and brought to concentration camps. He was separated from his mother and two sisters and was left with his father.
