Upon your arrival at Auschwitz, you would be stripped down, shaven, and your clothes would be taken and disinfected by Zylon-B gas. Depending on what you were sent to the camp for, you were treated different. For instance, most Soviet POW's and war prisoners were totured for information. If you were able to work, you were most likely going to be spared for laboring purposes. Men wore striped uniforms, and women wore woking dresses. Heads were shaved, and arms were tattooed for identification purposes. Jews and Soviets didn't have the same privilege as others. If you were from another group food parcels were permitted after 1942. Prisoners bathed in larged showers. To get to the bathhouse, they would have to strip completely and walk to the bathhouse naked
