Just trying to imagine how it must have been for them - so hopeless, horrible horrible pain, terror, knowing they were all alone ... all those beautiful women, young and old, treated with such savagery and led out to be mocked and scorned before their terrible deaths. It's so, so sad. Thank you for bringing this here ....... yes, they should be honoured.
