My father (88th, 351st Army Infantry) was with a group that liberated one of the camps in Germany. He stood in his front yard that was one-eighth of a mile from the main highway. He pointed to the main highway and said, “I’ve seen bodies piled ten feet high for a distance of one-eighth of a mile at one of the camps.” He couldn’t pronounce German names much; but I think it must have been one of the more obscure camps that wasn’t shown in many of the first films from that era. People were more squeamish about stuff like that back then. In retrospect, they shouldn’t have been. Lately on PBS, they have shown some film that had never before been seen from that era.
If you find a link to that PBS film, please post it.
God bless your father, There were hundreds of camps scattered all over. The scale of the camp murders boggles the mind.
