If you've not seen it already, your Head Trucker highly recommends watching Paragraph 175, which contains interviews and stories of many pink-triangle survivors, and some who didn't survive. Unlike the interview above, it's done mainly in English. This is essential knowledge of our history, boys - see the full video, and don't look away.
The title refers to the section of the German law code that outlawed all homosexual activity.

I've been trying to find a copy of this film for a while now.
If you haven't read it yet, you should try the Men with the Pink Triangles by Heinz Heger, a great true-life account of gays in the concentration camps.
