Auschwitz detainee recalls fight to survive After six weeks of harsh interrogation by the Gestapo, Zofia Posmysz was almost relieved to be sent to Auschwitz. She recalls: "When I saw the sign 'Arbeit macht frei' I felt even happier, because I thought if I worked hard, I'd be set free in a couple of months." Posmysz, now 91, was imprisoned in the Auschwitz-Birkenau German Nazi camp from May 30 1942 to January 18 1945. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
