Aneila Bodecka - 83234

Born on 25th April 1923, at only 21 years old, Aneila Bodecka was involved in the Warsaw uprising. This was a rebellion in the capital of Poland whereby the Polish Resistance Home Army, over the course of two months, attempted to liberate Warsaw from Nazi occupation. During this conflict, more than 55,000 civilians were sent to concentration camps, including 13,000 to Auschwitz, one being Aniela Bodecka, who arrived at the concentration camp on 12th August 1944. The Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp was liberated on 3rd April 1945, however Aneila Bodecka died shortly after the liberation, the same many other people who were imprisoned there near the end of World War Two. This is mostly likely due to malnutrition, as a result of extremely limited food, or infectious diseases that spread through the concentration camps very quickly. Aneila Bodecka, one of the people who was involved in the attempted liberation of Warsaw was unable to survive the traumatic events of Auschwitz-Birkenau, even though she was liberated from the camp by the allied forces.
