• “The smell of death overwhelmed us even before we passed through…More than 3,200 naked, emaciated bodies had been flung into shallow graves.” – US General Omar Bradley

1: The Round-UpNazi officers would canvas highly
populated cities all over Europe in search of finding members of the
“lesser race”
![Page 7: Many outside Europe heard of Nazi death camps & didn't know the extent of the cruelty](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070422/56816427550346895dd5e695/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
2: Interrogation• Even ID could be tampered
with, so people were selected based on looks,
last names, & living conditions
• Sometimes Germans, themselves were taken!

3: TransportationCaptured Jews were loaded on to old, dirty,
windowless train cars & cabooses in the night
Nazi officers would yell “move back” continuously to fit in as many people as
possible
Why would the Nazi government want to do this?...
![Page 9: Many outside Europe heard of Nazi death camps & didn't know the extent of the cruelty](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070422/56816427550346895dd5e695/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
What would the trains be like, you ask?
• Approx. 25x10 feet• Maximum capacity was 50 people in a
freight X 50 cars = 2,500 on one train• “Holocaust Cars” held 150 people in a
freight X 50 cars = 7,500 on one train!!!

4: ArrivalAfter days on these trains, people were
unloaded into concentration camps
Passengers were unaware of their location
No windows & night travel disclosed where camps were
![Page 11: Many outside Europe heard of Nazi death camps & didn't know the extent of the cruelty](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070422/56816427550346895dd5e695/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
5: SeparationFamilies & friends torn apart by a ruthless
selection process
+ young men, boys, girls
- too old, too young, feeble, sick, weak, diseased, disfigured
![Page 12: Many outside Europe heard of Nazi death camps & didn't know the extent of the cruelty](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070422/56816427550346895dd5e695/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
6: Extermination CampsThose deemed “unfit” were loaded back on to trains to re-visit terrible travel conditions
Sent to remotely hidden extermination camps, falsely labeled as “working camps”
Masses were gassed & cremated, shot, tortured, or starved
![Page 13: Many outside Europe heard of Nazi death camps & didn't know the extent of the cruelty](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070422/56816427550346895dd5e695/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

“Monsters exist, but they are too few in numbers to be truly dangerous. More dangerous
are…the functionaries ready to believe and act without asking
questions.”

“There's a long road of suffering ahead of you. But don't lose courage. You've already escaped the gravest danger:
selection.
So now, muster your strength, and don't lose heart. We shall all see the day of liberation. Have faith in life. Above all else, have faith. Drive out despair, and you will keep death away
from yourselves.
Hell is not for eternity. And now, a prayer - or rather, a piece of advice: let there be comradeship among you. We are all brothers, and we are all suffering the same fate. The same
smoke floats over all our heads.
Help one another. It is the only way to survive.” ― Elie Wiesel, Night

By the time Allies liberated these camps, Hitler was dead & many Nazis executed
their cyanide pacts
To avoid enemy persecution, Nazis who chose to live fled their posts at
concentration camps
Jews, Poles & Gypsies had been left alone for weeks without food, water or order

War Crimes Trials
Some Nazi officials who were in charge of these camps were captured nearby or eventually via investigation
As the truth of the Holocaust was revealed, the Allies decided to put the Nazi leaders on trial
Allies forced Nazi-supporting German citizens to enter camps & clean remains…a psychological trauma to
show people what regime they had been supporting
