Official Caption: "(Series of 16) (Page One) Rome. 6/5/45--New Nazi horror camp found--One of the worst Nazi concentration camps uncovered by Allied troops was liberated at Wobbelin, Germany, a small town five miles (eight KM.) north of Ludwigslust and 90 miles (144 KM.) northwest of Berlin. Soldiers of a U.S. Airborne Division, the U.S. Ninth Army and the Second British Army entered the camp and found sick, starving inmates barely surviving under indescribable conditions of filth and squalor. They found hundreds of dead prisoners in one of the buildings while outside, in a yard, hundreds more were found hastily buried in huge pits. One mass grave contained 300 emaciated, disfigured corpses. The dead included Poles, Russians, Frenchmen, Belgians, Dutchmen and Germans, all of whom had been working as slave laborers for the Nazis.--U.S. Signal Corps Photos--Serviced by Rome OWI (A List Out).
