Dimitry: Last month Russian archives released data on German camps in Soviet Union

168.122.12.111

Dimitry: It was in April I believe that additional documents were apparently released, it made the international news, concerning the incredible number of "concentration camps," a catch-all phrase including extermination/death camps, work camps, etc. Perhaps someone taped it? In any event, memory serves to recall the number was over 500 camps during the brief German occupation of western Soviet territory and the death toll during little more than a year was quite incredibly, over 5 million according to Soviet sources!! (No pacification/labor attempts in these camps, just a quick extermination of all...since all Soviets, soldiers and non-combatants, were deemed too dangerous to live.)
