Questions
[edit]- How long were the camp crematoria operational in post surrender Germany? How many bodies were disposed of in them post surrender?
Americans delivered low-ranking German suspects to Displaced persons camps for the purpose of having them executed by the DPs, without prior trial or sentencing.Matthew Brzezinski, Giving Hitler Hell
- "I once saw DPs beat an SS man and then strap him to the steel gurney of a crematorium. They slid him in the oven, turned on the heat and took him back out. Beat him again, and put him back in until he was burnt alive. I did nothing to stop it. I suppose I could have brandished my weapon or shot in the air, but I was not inclined to do so. Does that make me an accomplice to murder?"
