As the Germans saw it, the unit was responsible for the general sanitation in the field, in particular for preventing louse infestation and spread of scabies among the prisoner population. Behind their backs we provided care to actually sick prisoners who, for whatever reason, could not be admitted at the infirmary. We also obtained medicines for the sick in cooperation with doctor Perzanowska.

Now they brought several dozen (150?) Jewish women into the barrack – mothers with small children. They fastened the gate latch and the ober announced at the roll-call that no-one was to approach the fence, much less enter inside, which would be punishable by death. Even though the threat of death was used on a regular basis and death was generally commonplace not only as a punishment, I was still petrified when I entered the forbidden barrack. It hadn’t been my initiative. A couple of girls from the infirmary – Hela Cetnarowicz and Darka Żenczykowska, had come up with the idea and thought of a way to give it the vague semblance of legality. We stepped through the fence in our nurse uniforms, carrying bags marked with red crosses, openly, “officially”, and we went into the barrack. We had to find out and help, if we could. It is really difficult to describe what we saw inside. In that heat and fug, lying on the floor and the few beds there, was a mass of women and very small children. Nearly all of them wounded. I will never forget one mother who was holding a baby in her arms – an infant, not more than one year old. The woman’s forearm and the baby’s back and buttocks were one horrid, gaping wound – the worst kind, lacerated, burned, a shrapnel wound. (…) Their wounds were dirty, untended for days, (…) festering.
