In germany in 1933 there was ome choice http://www.historyplace.com/worldwar2/hitl.../hj-prelude.htm In America we had more than one.
Please understand I am not defending them, this is an explaination.
On or about 20 April 1945 I arrived at Canp Buchenwald, the clean up and burials were complete thank God. There were walking skeletons all thru the ccamp. I had no trouvle finding the crematorium. With the preparation room below. Where they slit the ankles of the courpses hanging on the wall by hooks. They were all gone. Then I rode the small elevator up to the furnace room level. There the bodies were still on the metal strechers in the ovens. In a side room were the pottery urns with the ashes in them of over 2000 people. This is as good a picutre as I can give. I rarely tell this story. YES htere are some who say it never happened. They just can not believe it. I saw it SO I know it is true.
