  1. 1. The person who was in charge of the tent was the well built and he looked very kind and he took an interest in them and gave orders for them to be brought food.2.The best camp there was the Buna's camp.3.They need to stay in quarantine to make sure that they have no diseases or that they are not sick so that they will not get any one else sick. 4. He had to to give up his shoes to get into a way better unit.. The dentist was pulling out everyone's gold crowns because he was ordered to.6. Juliek was a girl and was a French girl.7. Elie's group was to work in a warehouse with all of the electrical equipment.8. Tossi and Tibbi were brothers that were in the group.9. Alphonee was the head of the block he would try to feed everyone and look out for everybody.10. Ya he had to go to the dentist it was very important for his gold crown its was pretty mandatory for him.11. No the dentist did not get what he wanted he wanted to get his gold croen but he was killed before he got it.12. Elie walked in on Idek and then Elie was punished for that he was whipped.13. The girl was Juliek and she gave him advice for that he will feel better.14. My opinion is that he had no pitty for his dad and because he was used to what happened and he had seen way worse than that.15. He had lost his important favorite gold crown because the officer saw it and told him that he had to take it out.16.His major consequence was that he was being whipped.17. No They did not escape during the raids because they were very frightened .18. No they were not afraid during the bombing because they wanted to die.19. He responds to it by just thinking all about it.20. I think that his faith is dying because he does not understand why god will let this happen.21. The serious death of the innocent people represents to him in sadness and loss andt he starts loosing his faith in everything that he use to do.
