On the 8th of May 1940 Leon Niescior was arrested by the Gestapo at his home in occupied Poland.

Witness to the gas chambers, selections and casual barbarism of Auschwitz-Birkenau close by, that claimed so many lives, Nieiscor endured beatings that knocked out his teeth, starvation that left him a shell of himself, this is not for the faint-hearted.
