This is the official film documentary recorded by the United States Army of the Nazi Death Camps as Allied forces advanced into Germany. Although by then the fires in the Third Reich's crematoria had been reduced to smoldering ash, the remaining evidence was so unspeakably horrible that were it not for this documentary, the mind would refuse it. We are made witness to the half-dead prisoners, victims of "medical" experiments, gas chambers, and open mass graves of the camps whose names have become synonymous with human suffering and degradation. Every film frame of the Death Camps is irrefutable testimony to a lesson the world must never be permitted to forget.
