alex41 [277]3 years ago
6 0

Remember that Eliezer and his father were sent off to Auschwitz, which as commonly known today is a death camp. To determine whether they go to Auschwitz or Birkenau (the labor camp next to Auschwitz), they were asked for some of the following things:


1) Age

2) Occupancy

3) Health condition

4) (i believe there might be more) etc.


Each of these determine if they can work, and depending on what they answer, they were either sent directly to the death camp, or were sent to the labor camp.


Now, to answer the question, they were told to lie about their ages so that they would have a higher survivability rate.


hope this helps

Why did american support for the war change after the tet offensive
bija089 [108]

Answer:

The support of the American people for the war changed because it was convinced that a military victory would not be achieved quickly.

Explanation:

Hello!

In the framework of the Vietnam War, the Tet offensive was a military campaign carried out by the army of North Vietnam in 1968. The operation was characterized by a large deployment of troops that attacked numerous targets throughout Vietnam simultaneously.

Militarily, the US army won a great victory, but with a large number of human casualties on its side (approximately 4,000 deaths). This influenced public opinion, which began to question the high cost of their participation in the war.
