On this day, 29 October 1942, 21-year-old Polish nurse Danuta Terlikowska was executed in the Auschwitz concentration camp with a phenol injection to the heart. She had been arrested in Warsaw while cleaning a weapon, and so presumably was involved in the anti-Nazi resistance. She was deported to Auschwitz on 25 August 1942, and her sentence handed down by the Political Department. Though weak from typhus, and unable to walk unaided, surviving eyewitnesses described her as being able to remain calm, and said that her face remained forever imprinted in their memory. https://www.facebook.com/workingclasshistory/photos/a.296224173896073/1568627973322347/?type=3
