Unfortunately,
I received a double portion,
:34:04
because when I wasn't looking
my wife dumped hers
into my dish.
:34:11
Good morning.
My name is Fred Leuchter.
:34:14
I'm an engineer from Boston
in the United States,
:34:17
and I'm here this snowy morning
at Auschwitz in Poland.
:34:21
The date is February 28.
It's approximately 10:30 a.m.
:34:25
I'm here to examine...
:34:27
this alleged gas chamber.
:34:29
Some people feel
it was an air raid shelter.
:34:32
Other people feel that
it was simply a morgue.
:34:35
And then there are those
that feel the structure
functioned as a gas chamber...
:34:40
for sending people
on their way to their death.
:34:47
Carol was outside
at one of the entrances,
:34:51
essentially freezing.
:34:53
She was
one of our lookouts.
:34:56
We had her at one door.
The translator
was at the other door.
:35:02
Howard, my draftsman,
and myself were inside,
:35:05
taking measurements
and recording the locations
and bagging the samples,
:35:10
and the cinematographer
was making the videotapes.
:35:14
So everybody was busy at
what they were supposed to do.
:35:17
We didn't have
any extra people.
:35:24
We made paint scrapings
and chiseled plaster
from locations...
:35:28
that are not
immediately noticeable,
:35:31
but still were proper locations
for condensation of cyanide gas.
:35:38
We made detailed
scale drawings of the rooms...
:35:42
with arrows showing
the location that was removed.
:35:48
The notebook, videotape
and the drawings...
:35:54
were given to the court
and became part
of the permanent evidence.
