The daily schedule of a prisoner in the concentration camps is very different to average people's schedule. The day starts off with a rude awakening at 4:00 in the morning. Then you must make your bed, very neatly or get beaten. Then the prisoners were to get dressed. Then after making the beds you must go to the sanitary stations and clean up. The prisoners got very little time to clean up, before the morning roll call.
Then for breakfast the prisoners ate stale bread, tasteless coffee, and if you were lucky you would get some butter and a piece of sausage to go with your bread. Serving food to the servants was like "fun" to the workers, they would push the prisoners in the mud spilling their coffee and food, and they were punished for waisting their food, and they were given no more food. For the unlucky, next came the morning roll call.
The next thing the prisoners are expected to do is work for 12-14 hours of work. The work is very hard, and useless, to move heavy sand bags from one point to another, to carry heavy stones, to dig trenches. Everything has to be done as fast as possible, if a guard thinks you are not working fast enough, you'll be beat up, maybe until you die. Don't even think about stopping for a while or even slowing down. It will be considered as sabotage and this means death.
Next came lunch break, the prisoners were fed very little and it the campers fainted or fell from weakness, they would be killed. Next there is another roll call in the afternoon. After working a long day, the survivors had to carry the bodies of those who died. Then they are expected to eat again. After eating in the evening, the prisoners have to go to the evening roll call. The camp has to have roll calls out through the day to know how many died or if anyone escaped.
Then again the prisoners eat the same soup they had for dinner, and if they had any leftover bread they could eat that. Next the day is finally over and the people head to bed. Sleeping is not very pleasant in the camps. The people cannot escape in any way. There are night guards watching. If you are caught outside your barracks, the soldiers will make you exercise, until you get very tired and even die. The people lay on straw beds with one blanket for about 5 people. If someone wants to turn over the rest have to turn with him. The people are very lucky to get through one day at the camps.
