"Friedrich Wilhelm Krüger commanded the police and SS forces of the Generalgouvernement.
On July 19, 1942, Krüger received an order from SS chief Heinrich Himmler that commanded him to assure 'that the resettlement of the entire Jewish population of the Generalgouvernement be carried out and completed by December 31.'
Krüger willingly obeyed."
"Helping Jews in any way was considered a crime.
Here a boy and his mother in the Przemysl (Poland) Ghetto attempt to sell some goods.
The woman and child would eat if they sold something, but the likelihood of that was slim because local authorities arrested anyone who engaged in commercial trade with Jews."
"Seated next to Massachusetts Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, Rabbi Stephen Wise (left) prepares to address a rally of 18,000 people in Madison Square Garden.
Speakers promised a day of reckoning for Nazi barbarity.
A gifted orator, Wise worked tirelessly to call attention to the plight of peoples under Nazi oppression.
When he learned of the implementation of the 'Final Solution,' he turned his energies to urging the Roosevelt administration to launch rescue efforts."
The short p5 blurb about the nazi woman Stoeppler with 10 sons in the army was interesting in that I wondered what the family status was once the war was over and all POW’s returned to Germany? I did a quick search but couldn’t find anything.
Bump.
