Assignment 5 Timeline Summary

Concentration Camps
Many Concentration Camps were the number one choice for Nazi's to kill the Jews.There was many other ways of killing the Jews but this was the most used method.The reasons that they would use the concentration camps more than anything was because it was a lot quicker and would spare the Germans less ammunition and less emotional pain.There was about 6 concentration camps located in Poland. When they arrived at the newly added concentration camps (1942) they were not being selected to die they would kill them once they arrived. All the other camps in Poland were closing down except for Auschwitz which kept running through the summer of 1944.All the other camps in Poland were being destroyed to leave no evidence to their crime.At last they sent millions of Jews to the concentration camps in central Germany. Thousands of them died and is now known as the Death Marches.
