In March of 1945 two infantry divisions, the 45th and the 42th, entered Dachau finding a very grim and atrocious sight. In the middle of the camp there lay a train of 39 boxcars and open gondola cars. In thosecars were the bodies of 2,300 dead jews. No troop in that camp had a dry eye that day. The men were told to let no SS men live. All of a sudden four SS men, with their hands held high, came out of a hiding place. Lt. William P. Walsh took the men and put them in one of the boxcars. He took out his pistol and unloaded on them. While they were still moaning a private came over and finished them of with his rifle. All through that day surrendering SS men were killed and the total body count was 24.

 

Was it murder or justice? You tell me.
