What exactly did the Allied soldiers see in the concentration camps? Machine guns then strafed the captured Germans

At the end of World War II, the momentum of the German army was declining, and many German-occupied areas were gradually liberated. But at the same time, there were still many Jews and prisoners captured by the German army who were suffering, hoping that the German army would be defeated one day sooner. At the end of April 1945, the Allies arrived in southern Germany, and on the same day, the U.S. military successfully liberated the Most disgusting Dachau concentration camp of World War II, releasing more than 67,000 prisoners. Dachau was one of the first concentration camps to be established in 1933 until the defeat of the German army, of which as many as 200,000 prisoners of war were registered. Prisoners of war consisted mainly of Jews and Gypsies and some of the captured Allied forces. The most gruesome of the camps were the gas chambers and the dissection chambers, where countless people died every day, either from starvation, or from sickness, or from fear, but more often from human experiments. At that time, the German army gathered many scattered concentration camp prisoners into the Dachau concentration camp because of the Allied advance into Germany.

When the Allies first witnessed the scene in the concentration camp, many soldiers lost their minds because of the scene in front of them, or even some soldiers with low psychological quality vomited directly against the wall. One American soldier recalled that "dozens of trucks filled with prisoners' bodies were parked on the road to concentration camps, and the air was filled with the stench of disgusting corpses." The prisoners released that day were also skinny, and a U.S. lieutenant once described them: "They are like dirty skeletons, and when we see them, we can think of what kind of tribulations they have experienced." The scene in front of them infuriated the Allied soldiers, so many Allied soldiers ignored the convention restrictions and killed the last group of German soldiers who failed to retreat in time after shouting "there are no prisoners here".

Afterwards, the United States launched a secret investigation into the retaliation, but with little success, the American soldiers in this incident were also acquitted after being questioned by symbols, and finally failed. One person said: "About 50 German Nazis were actually shot, not as many as 500 in the social rumors, and many prisoners also participated in the retaliation." ”

Many things in World War II became a mystery, and it was once said that "would the Germans feel guilty about having poisoned prisoners of war who were not harmful?" Everything is known only to God, and the Allies have only fulfilled their duty to send them to God. "And what happened to all of this, no one knows.
