1 Jan 1944 Jahr - 12. Liberation of Death Camps*

Beschreibung:

Death camp liberation happened between 1944-1945. Allied troops pressed eastward into the German heartland, and the Soviet army pushed westward across Poland toward Berlin. Soviets were the first to come upon one of the Nazi death camps. SS guards worked feverishly to bury and burn all evidence of their hideous crimes.
Significance - The Allies finally saw the horrors of what the Germans were doing even though it was only rumored.
