The Kapos were worse than the guards in most cases. They were, for the most part, criminals themselves.

I am sure that you have, but if you haven't, check out the Jewish Ghetto Police. Please. For your enlightenment. Thanks.

I will check that out. Thanks.

In my 20s, I read Leon Uris’ “Mila 18.” It was the first id heard of the Warsaw Ghetto and I was blown away. Not a single history class in High School or college covered any aspect of the Holocaust. That was 25-30 years after those events.

When my daughter studied in Italy in high school, her host family took us to the concentration camp in Carpi. That was the first time I realized the geographic extent of the camp system and the scale of that operation.

Just a couple months ago, while studying genealogical ancestors in Danzig, Germany, I learned how many camps there were in that region.
