1. The first thing that I notice in the photo is that all the staff working at Auschwitz are smiling. The workers do not seem the least bit frightened about what they were doing.
2. The idea that comes to mind when I see this photo is that the staff is happy that they are accomplishing what they set out to do. Kill Jews. The workers are not at the least bit worried about what they were doing to the Jews. I believe that they are all singing on the bridge because they accomplished something that has been asked of them. Its a time to relax and get away from killing.
3. Why are the staff happy? How could they stand there and laugh and sing while they are killing thousands of people? What role did music play in keeping the staff relaxed after killing?
