Sonderkommandos
A Sonderkommando was anyone who did jobs around the camp as labor. The Sonderkommandos were usually around the age of 10-16. They were sent to the manager of the camp and he would decide if that person would die or work. A Sonderkommando would often be starved and sleep deprived. None the less, they would do the tasks.
