Mengele Brood Infernal
In a country in the south of Brazil there are about 38 pairs of twins blonde with blue eyes. What 's wrong with it? Perhaps they are the results of experiments of Josef Mengele, the Auschwitz doctor.
Josef Mengele (German pronunciation: (Günzburg, March 16, 1911 - Bertioga, February 7, 1979) was a physician and Nazi German SS officer.
Research and experiments on twins
Among the research conducted by Mengele in the field, those to which he devoted more energy and attention (Already conducted one year before the Auschwitz) were reserved for the twins. In particular, concentrated his attention on the Mengele twins. The same Mengele went to the wharf, where trains arrive prisoners, to see the twins as soon as he came down. The groups of twins, included individuals of different ages, from children to seniors, including senior was chosen, which assumed the function of Zwillingsvater (Capogemelli or father of the twins), to further distinguish them from other prisoners, were tattooed with also the number two letters ZW (ie Zwillinge). Of his research in KZ (Konzentrationslager, concentration camp) Mengele always kept informed of his former university professor, Von Verschuer also sent the Institute of Racial Biology in Berlin, specimens and reports. Mengele twins analyzed together, which applied in research of comparable type. In his analysis of identical twins, Mengele measurements, photographs, blood samples are often at each visit. Some twins surviving the other hand, argue that the search for Mengele also applies to other practices: use of chemicals to analyze the reaction of the skin, or pressure on the body to measure resistance or injections.
On the relation between Mengele and the twins there are conflicting testimonies. An assistant of the same Mengele, Dr.. Miklos Nyiszli testified that Mengele was the same to kill (told in a particular episode where killed in one night, one after the other, 14 twins of Gypsy origin). As for the other prisoners, other than twins, there are some doubts: killed by shooting directly or through various injections of phenol. Others, like his assistant, Teresa W., said he had never heard about that Mengele twins who killed a student, and using the same, if such a thing had occurred to her would be impossible not to get to know . Objectively, beyond this, the twins led the field a better life than other prisoners (and this just by virtue of being subjected to a search of that Mengele) was in fact allowed them to continue to wear clothing originating and not to shave their hair. The twins lived in a special block, near the barracks dedicated to research and separate from other prisoners, the working area less tiring (runner), had a diet more nutritious and enjoyed an almost complete protection: If stealing were not killed, they could turn freely in the camp and could not be beaten or harmed for any reason by prisoners and by the same SS.
This special treatment allowed the majority of twins to survive for long periods and in most cases to succeed reaching up to the liberation of the KZ to the same work of the Russians (even a few years after their entry). In fact, the chances of survival of the other prisoners than those of identical twins were almost non-existent, counting the fact that many prisoners were gassed just got off the train and not even a night spent in Auschwitz.
