The cold sadistic pleasure that some of the prisoners were humiliated and tortured with. Incredible. Just purposeless, senseless evil for there was no point for so much. Just plain useless cruelty that these soldiers were victim to. (of course I have loads of personal reactions of horror and outrage ... those poor men. God)

This is so much of what our soldiers were there to put an end to. Fanaticism and Insanity inflicted on the rest of the world. Imagine had the Nazi's won the war.

WHEN did knowledge of the concentration camps happen? When I was really young I read " The Diaries of Anne Frank" That set me on reading every book I could find in the library written by Holocaust survivors. I don't recall when the "secret camps" was found out.
