You were at that time in charge
of the sentry units both within
and outside the camp
also for the guard units
attached to the work details
What did that involve
My assignment was
to keep an eye on the guards
to see they carned out their charge
diligently and faithfully
What regulations were they under
When a prisoner tried to escape
the guard was required to call out three times
before firing a warning shot
If
the prisoner still didn't halt
he was to be shot
to prevent further flight
Were any prisoners shot
for this reason
Not under my command
Did prisoners
run up against the electrically charged
barbed wires
Not under my command
Did it ever occur
I heard it happened sometimes
Did guard details
obey regulations
As
far as
I
know
Yes
On my word of honor
Do you know anything about cap shooting
About what
Shooting caps
I've heard about it
What did you hear
They said
caps were thrown up
and then they shot at them
