My Uncle Herbert Ogden, of the British Army, Pathfinder Tanks, opened the gates at Belsen and set the people free. He was the most humble, happy man you could hope to meet. He died last year at 96 years old. RIP Uncle Bert. You were a man’s man, a good man and always missed.

My grandfather fought in Holland during Operation Market Garden and from there moved into Germany. Near the city Celle was The Camp Bergen Belsen, here he and his fellow troops entered and liberated the camp. He actually never spoke of what he saw. Till his death 10 years ago he was never the same as he was at the age of 24. He always told me great stories about the war. But when anyone started about Bergen Belsen, his face turned white and you could see fear in his eyes.

The poster may not speak/write English as first language so may depend on "unreliable" resources like _dictionaries._

My late father was part of the British Army unit that liberated Bergen-Belsen on 8th April 1945. A corporal with the Royal Corp of Signal, he then spent a week manning an emergency communications centre within the boundaries of the camp. After Josef Kramer's trial, my father was selected as one of the British Army personnel who were official witnesses to his execution. Until he died in 2004, at the age of 86, there wasn't day when those events were far from his memory

My Mother told me that my father was one of the soldiers who helped liberate Belsen. He must of seen so much horror that when he returned home to us in UK he was a very sick man. He had a severe water infection from the trenches and a nervous breakdown. He never mentioned this to me as I guess it was all too painful but years later he got a job as caretaker at a local synagogue and made quite a few friends with the Jewish community.

Visited Bergen-Belsen several times while I was stationed in West Germany in the last half of the 80's & we would go up to do gun camps every year. A very eerie feeling walking in there, no birds flying around or singing & no animals were around there either. Also visited Natzweiler as it wasn't far from where we were stationed in Lahr, less than an hours drive to it for us & not to sound disrespectful, but it was in a really pretty part of France in the hills. Again, no birds were around or small animals - seemed like they knew what happened there at those places & would avoid them.....

It was like that when I visited Auschwitz in January 2012 although it was deep winter and all the trees were dead with no birds in them. Snow all over the place and minus 32 ! Very eerie and very quiet. Extremely cold I can't imagine what it was like just wearing those striped uniforms. Apparently Poland has boiling hot humid summers and freezing cold winters. So the prisoners were uncomfortable all year round!

The sad part of this is that less than a 100 years later, some people are trying to undermine these tragic event against humanity. This only proves that it takes only at least three generation to start forgetting the atrocities made by people in the history. The number of people who cannot accept that these really happen may not be that noticeable yet but their ignorance is slowly becoming contagious.

@knight Owl I read, years ago, that putting them on solid food, right away, caused organ failure (especially the kidneys, if I recall correctly; the liver is more resilient than the kidneys): the food was simply too "rich" for their bodies to handle. They should have spoken up! "Our mothers fed us chicken soup when we were sick." (A clear broth of low-sodium chicken soup stock is something they actually settled on: and fed them up to 4 times a day, keeping them adequately hydrated and warm in their beds. When those prisoners began to get stronger, their diet was changed, gradually.) (Boiled cabbage...both red and green...is good, and easily handled by the body.)

And without any undue stress or pain. That was why he perfected a hanging technique. Nor did he ever draw out his executions he did them as quickly as possible and gave the condemned no time to dwell on it. Nor did he ever tolerate anyone trying to taunt the condemned when they were alive or dead. So the best way to describe him is as a consummate professional.

My Grandpa…..John Powell, was also part of the liberation efforts with the British forces. He was an MP and had the responsibility to arrest Josef Kramer, who seemed unbothered or completely disconnected by the magnitude of his actions. The remaining guards at the camp during liberation definitely got a taste of their own medicine until litigation efforts were organized. I’ll never forget the stories he told me growing up. Looking back, I know he put an under-exaggerated spin on the conditions of Bergen-Belsen. Truly amazing to know my grandpa was part of a piece of history. RIP

My father’s comrade was given the job of bulldozing the bodies of the victims into large pits - a task he never recovered from suffering from his nerves later in life. We have no idea what it must have been like to enter a camp totally unprepared for what you were going to see. Later, my father was at Hameln (Hamlin) and chatted to a man building the gallows and the chap asked my father whether he would like to bang a nail into the gallows which would end the life of Kramer. I am not sure whether he accepted the offer.

Nazi Germany was more than "one man and his minions". Their crimes could not have been perpetuated without the willing cooperation of a significant number of Germans and of their allies and collaborators. The National Socialists polled a greater percentage of the popular vote, in the election prior to Hitler being named Chancellor, than David Cameron's last government which secured a substantial overall majority. It is all too easy to blame one man and a few cronies to absolve the guilt of a nation. We talk about Japanese WW2 war crimes and genocide for example but never German atrocities. Easier to blame the Nazis. We cannot be sure if all those committing atrocities were Nazis but we know they were all German (or Austrian) or peoples under the direction of Germans.

He just said something about " Man's inhumanity to man" which then I did not understand, but later after his death my mother told me he had been there after its liberation, she also told me that immediately after I had found the photos (and they were quite large ones about 10"x8" printed in the darkroom of the field hospital) he destroyed all of them saying that he should not have kept them for me to find, but as horrific as it was at that tender age I wished he had kept them for when my mother spoke of it I was an adult and would have liked to see what he saw first hand as a reminder of " man's inhumanity to man" for we should NOT forget what these monsters did.

I have relatives who entered a concentration camp, roughly at the same time as some Russians, Russians got there first. According to them, if it weren't for the Americans also being there, there would have been no Germans to take prisoner... They restrained them BEFORE they finally saw how bad the camp was, wished they hadn't after. Would not say anything further about it...I never have and still have no reason to even ask. What happened, happened.

Yea. Apparently at one camp that Americans liberated, the Americans (including officers) were so distraught over what they found, the soldiers were basically given a 24 hour “kill lol the German Guards, Camp Officials, and SS you want pass”. These sone of these guys survived D-Day, but the camps were mentally to mush. Apparently the same thing happened with Canadian and Russian allies too. Yea. Don’t piss off the Canadians.

I visited Dachau In August of 1989 It was late in the day but it was still quite hot outside In the shadow of one of the barracks I saw in my mind's eye something I will never forget true evil and I could smell the dead the silent screams it may have been 85 degrees fahrenheit but all I could do was shiver I didn't sleep at all for a week and when I did I was haunted by that place And still I believe they should make the story's of what happened there mandatory for all students to see lest this is ever repeated. God be with any who survived that he'll hole.

I have visited Belsen and Dachau camps and seen the evidence of their treatment of not only the Jews but gypsies and the disabled Germans who were classed as not fit to live as they did not represent the true image they wanted for themselves. When in Germany in the 1980's all German High school children had to visit one of the death camps as part of their education to show what right wing extremism can lead to and it was a sight I can never forget as they came out of the buildings in tears as their parents had never told them about the experiments and mass slaughter of other human beings carried out by their own countrymen to create a mythical perfect Ayrian race. What astonished me was the fact the company who supplied the poison for the gas chambers is still going and is one of Germany's largest chemical manufacturers BASF.

If you want to know how I feel about Japan, well why not ask the Emperor who refused to surrender upon threats that they will be bombed if he didn't. He had the chance to save all those people but put his ego above all. Even after the first bomb was dropped, he again refused to surrender. It was not until they were threatened with a third that they finally saw sense. If you know anything of the Japanese culture at that time, you wouldn't be asking stupid questions like this.

I remember a distinct, almost "guitly" feeling of unbelief. Not because I don't believe that these horrors were perpetrated, but because I can't imagine anyone actually actively partaking in such horrific evil. God bless the souls who perished at the hands of those monsters.
