Jeffery,
Images like this are exactly why folks like you should be taking lots of
images.  Ten years from now, whatever happens there, we will have forgotten
what was there.  A visual record, widely dispersed prevents revisionism.
Eisenhower commisioned massive documentation of the camps in Germany so that
no one could ever say that what happened, never happened.
