Then Vogl pointed at the wall and said, "Look at this one, Alex. It is my personal favorite." They were words, tortured graffiti, scrawled by a prisoner who was faceless now and unknown: "Perhaps the hour will arrive. Perhaps they'll let me go. Perhaps we will be able to say farewell to the Gestapo in my homeland, in my homeland, to a reunion we will strive." Vogl said, "It is beautifully expressed, but so naive. We need to better communicate the mission of the Gestapo to the population. It is our greatest failing, that communication. If people understood our goals, they would understand why saying farewell to the Gestapo would be Germany's biggest mistake." As we left the cell and the door was being shut, the enormous hinges screamed and then there was this heavy clang. We walked further. There was a common room where two Gestapo guards lounged and read the newspaper, secure behind an iron gate. Farther down the hall was clearly another room of some sort because it was from that direction that the silence was pierced by a scream that was equal parts terrifying and heartbreaking." -- $c Back cover.
