    My grandpa fought in the battle of the Rhine and he told me stories about liberating these camps, he would start crying half way through it. then my dad would come in the room and yell at me for asking him about the war, yea it really messed him up a lot, i was 10 years old and i'll never forget that..

    My great uncle was one of the liberators of Dachau and til the day he died he still called said that to call Nazis devils in human skin would be an offense to the devil.

    By father was among those who liberated Buchenwald. I have a couple dozen photos he took. He told us that he took the pictures because he knew no one would believe what they found there. I need to find an organization that will preserve this precious evidence of what happened at Buchenwald.

    My late grandparents survived the horrors of the holocaust but their families were not as lucky (if u wanna call them lucky). My grandparents went thru horror and mental and physical anguish not only during the war but before and especially after. Most forget that Jews after the war had no home, no money, no property, no family, no friends left usually and if they did they did not no where to find them, and basically no will to go on in such a terrible mental and physical state. It took years of homeless shelters and street walking and believe it or not, more antisemitism by people even after the war, until they finally made it to America and busted their asses to make a living and make sure they put all their children in good schools and had a nice home. All my uncles and mother all graduated college and got good jobs and had good lives thanks to the perseverance of my grandparents who even tho they passed on are still my hero's!! Please do not ever forget what happened and make sure to teach ur kids about this as their memories may never be forgotten and this type of major world wide atrocity should NEVER happen again to anyone!!

    When I lived and worked in Germany at a military base in the early 80's, I met a lady with a tattoo on her arm. Me being the fool that I was asked her about it. She explained it to me and said that the people who lived around the camps said if they said anything they would be next to go to the camps. I still remember that day like it was yesterday. I also visited Dachau in the 90's when the Berlin wall came down, a depressing experience. You could still smell the burnt flesh, even after all of those years. It was so quiet. Not even one bird or living animal there. No noises whatsoever. I still cry when I think about those times.

    My great grandfather was with the US 2nd Infantry division when they liberated a number of sub-camps. Unfortunately I was far too young to hear his stories by the time he passed, but my grandpa tells me that he almost never talked about it and any time he tried, he couldn't really handle to recount the things he saw. He took the details of much of his experience in WW2 to the grave.

    I have watched this film. Could not believe seeing my Father. Who was liberated from Dachau Concentration Camp. He is no longer with us he died in 1968 aged 44yrs old. But he would having recurring nightmares. Which played on his mind. He had to put a lady in the furnace. Who was unconscious but still a life. He had four German solders with guns on him.

    My mother and aunt we're interned by the Nazis for 2 years. I grew up hearing bits and pieces of what the went through. The murders on a daily basis. People scrambling for one piece of bread.starvation all around and the body parasites less alone the weather elements
    Death everywhere. I couldn't imagine loosing 9 brothers and sisters in three days by the Nazis. Out of 16 children only 6 were to survive the war. Grandpa was an old man. We are Belgium farmers and the Nazis pillaged all their live stock and food stuffs. He saw wwI and ww2 but lived to 100. Loosing his wife between wars to the birth of the 16th child. Unreal that this could of happened. Never again. Never again. My aunt and mom came out weighting about 60 pounds each. Both were in their early 20s. They were tortured and my aunt talked of rape. She told me my name meant death before dishonor and so I was raised to fight for what was right. To love all people and respect all unless I saw that disrespect the you fight against. My aunt even saw Hitler speak she told me. Some in the family we're in the Belgium resistance. I thank God for the blessings of today and the sacrifices of good humans of yesteryear
    Never forget Never forget

    When I was 14 years old back in 1965 my grandfather took me to visit a friend of his who lived in the Fairfax district of LA. They were, what seemed to me an old couple, in their apartment was a room that had many photos of relatives that died in camps. I can still close my eyes and see the room.

    My father entered Germany a few months before the end of the war, part of a small counter-intelligence group. They liberated a concentration camp in the salt mines. They were horrified and speechless by what they found. I remember him telling me that the local people claimed that they had no idea of what was going on in the camps, “but they godammned well knew.” He always remembered, even at the end of his life, his mind ravaged by dementia. One day not long before his death I was watching the news on television with him. There was a story about one ethnic group in the Middle East burying another ethnic group alive in the desert with bull dozers. Clear as a bell, he said, “They are worse than the goddamned Nazis.”

    "Ohrdruf was liberated on April 4, 1945,
    by the 4th Armored Division and the 89th Infantry Division.
    It was the first Nazi concentration camp liberated by the U.S. Army.
    --
    When the soldiers of the 4th Armored Division entered the camp, they discovered piles of bodies, some covered with lime,
    & others partially incinerated on pyres.
    The ghastly nature of their discovery
    led General Dwight D. Eisenhower,
    Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces in Europe,
    to visit the camp on April 12,
    with Generals George S. Patton & Omar Bradley.
    After his visit, Eisenhower cabled General George C. Marshall,
    the head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff in Washington,
    describing his trip to Ohrdruf:
    _______ " ... the most interesting-although horrible-sight
    that I encountered during the trip
    was a visit to a German internment camp near Gotha.
    The things I saw beggar description.
    While I was touring the camp I encountered three men
    who had been inmates & by one ruse or another
    had made their escape.
    I interviewed them through an interpreter.
    The visual evidence & the verbal testimony of starvation, cruelty
    & bestiality were so overpowering
    as to leave me a bit sick.
    In one room, where they were piled up 20 or 30 naked men,
    killed by starvation,
    George Patton would not even enter.
    He said that he would get sick if he did so.
    ••••••• I made the visit deliberately, in order to be in a position
    to give first-hand evidence of these things
    if ever, in the future,
    there develops a tendency to charge these allegations
    merely to 'propaganda.' ..."

    Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces in Europe

    I went to college with a German lad who I liked very much. We were the same age, and the fact that we got along so well made me consider that it was entirely possible that one of his relatives who fought in WW2 might have killed or injured one of mine, or vice versa, and how strangely poignant that possibility was in light of our friendship.
    Life is so strange, and so much is about unquestioned beliefs and timing... Another time, another place would have brought about a very different relationship.
    Makes me wonder how many lost potential friends and sole-mates there were amongst the murderers and the murdered. It's so insanely sad.

    The will and determination of the survivors to live is astounding. I can't begin to imagine how difficult that must've been. And to see their elation at being rescued is just so heartwarming even though it's still crushing to think about what they endured and all of the lives lost by these absolute monsters. Let's all hope hell exists and all of the perpetrators are continuing to suffer long after their dastardly deed.

    I was in Jerusalem outside the Holocaust Museum when the missile sirens began to wail. Rockets launched from Gaza, supplied by Iran, were racing towards us. We had seconds to find shelter, along with many soldiers and Israelis. Although it may seem strange, I felt it an honour to share their danger, even in this small way. Resistance to violent hatred must always manifest with unwavering resolve. Failure to do so is tacit approval. There are no "sidelines', no neutrality, in genocide.

    My father was a World War II veteran he spoke seven languages including Hebrew and German later work for OSI which he then went on to work for other government investigative agencies. I’m Ashkenazi and Sephardic, My father saw the concentration camps. He was part of the front not just infantry but he was a tank destroyer operator. He is in Heaven now, he received a Purple Heart during his World War II service. As well as other metals & honors. It’s imperative that everyone learn this part of history. I am a former newscaster & journalist (radio
    / TV )I feel like it’s important to watch the Eichmann & Nuremberg trials, And learn all we can about this time in history, to always remember the victims and survivors and Allies, the Russians , English, France and the US well documented these concentration death camps.

Awesome privilege and testimony. God bless all of you precious people!

      All born again believers should be praying for the salvation of he Jewish people, for them to accept Jesus as the promised messiah as truly God manifest in the flesh. However in God's perspective hose of us who are born again are His children. Jesus called the Jews the synagogue of Satan and rebuked the Jewish leaders for following traditions which were not of God which was later written as the filthy Talmud. The Talmud states Jesus is in hell boiling in semen and excrement, that is acceptable to have intercourse with a three year old girl because her virginity will return, acceptable to have intercourse with a boy up to age nine and a few months, that non- Jews are cattle and it is acceptable to cheat them. Most modern day Jews do not live by Torah but by Talmud or are atheist. The Lord always protected the nation of Israel if they worshipped and obeyed Him, once they rejected Christ, He allowed them to be scattered and persecuted for their unbelief. According to Revelation and Daniel, he has promised to re-establish them in Israel after the Tribulation to those who have accepted Christ as messiah and not before that time. The majority are still in a state of unbelief and the nation will remain in turmoil because they are again in disobedience to the Lord. Please continue to pray for them.

I can't even understand how another human could do what they did without having nightmares every time they went to bed. Love is the opposite of fear and Hate! It so much easier to love one another then hate. I feel like even the Nazi men and women probably were exhausted from what they had to do . I only hope they learned the truth and asked God for forgiveness. I know that some did change and start to church to heal from what they did, I can only imagine it might have haunted them their whole life. I pray even to this day for their souls. I pray for the people who are going through thing's that are similar to this till this day.
    Is it easier to smile or have anger and Hate? I feel like it is easier to love and smile! It's less exhausting!

    My grandfather was one of the liberators and his best friend of 50 years was on the German side. I think they met in Korea.

    Out of the ashes a strong nation arose...Israel, today the 8th most powerful nation in the world. You suffered so much for a nation to be born !

    A lot of Isles died in these camps. I never knew them but I knew they were related to me. I will never forget them.

    OmG! My eyes have tears ,my stomach is in knots, no matter how many times I see these films always the same symptoms. No people, regardless of race or religion should be treated like this, it's better to kill all at on time than to cause endless pain ,suffering and degradation.

    Why? How? Why? How? Hate, discrimination, fear, racism, bigotry, sexism, antisemitism; that’s how. That’s why. And until people realize that people, ALL people, are all born equally GOOD and deserving... I’m afraid we could be asking ourselves Why? And How? again.
