Hi Dave - I don*t mean to get off the beaten path of your subject but I
thought this event I experienced would be very apt to the other 5 Million.
In 1996 I rode the Oregon Trail to get a feel of what the
Pioneers experienced in the 1850*s.
One day I came across a rusted out
covered wagon that had been abandoned. I naturally dismounted
wondered at what the event may have been to cause the lost of their prairie schooner. When suddenly I noticed a note on the
rusted frame written by someone who had passed earlier.
It read: We turn, to look at the broken images of what we were; in our
journey to discover what we are. Thanks Patrick

Below is all that I have so far. I think you will find it interesting.
I don't believe we will ever know the total number of people who were killed.
The part that has been interesting to me is that most of us had not heard about the "rest".

Sometimes I not sure wether comments are for
real or just some Neo-Nazi hate group that wants to promote their
concepts that the Holocaust never took place.
Thank you.
