AUSCHWITZ COMMANDANTS: MANY COMMANDANTS RULED THE DIFFERENT CAMPS. THE CAMPS ONLY LAST A FEW MONTHS TO A COUPLE YEARS. SOME PEOPLE WHO RULED THE AUSCHWITZ CAMP WERE SS Lieutenant Colonel Rudolf, SS Lieutenant Colonel Arthur Liebehenschel, and SS Major Richard Baer. They ruled the camp all during separate times throughout May 1940 till January 1945.

Deportations to Auschwitz:
Jews from all over Europe and Germany were being deported to concentration camps. As soon as they arrived they were often sent into gas chambers. About 145,000 weren’t even Jews. In the end approximately 1.1 million Jews were killed. Many Jews didn’t know they were being sent to these death camps. Many thought they were being sent to a safe place from the Nazis.

The Prisoner Revolt at Auschwitz: Once the prisoners were on the train most thought they were gonna be saved. Once they arrived they found out they would be killed almost instantly unless useful. The prisoners rebelled, fought and attacked the guards, killing 3 guards total. They destroyed the creametorium and even a gas chamber. Almost every prisoner involved in it was killed and the women who smuggled the explosives were hung.

EVACUATION OF AUSCHWITZ AND ITS SUBCAMPS: ONCE THE SOVIET FOUND THE CAMPS THE SS BEGAN TO FORCE THE PRISONERS TO EVACUATE SO THEY COULD KEEP THE PRISONERS. THE PRISONERS HAD TO WALK 30-35 MILES UNTIL THEY REACHED THE TRAIN. IF THEY EVER FELL BEHIND OR GOT TO WEAK TO CARRY ON OR BE USED THEY WERE SHOT AND KILLED INSTANTLY AND LEFT BEHIND LIKE THEY NEVER EXISTED .EVEN IF YOU MADE IT TO THE TRAIN ON THE TRAINS MANY STILL DIED BECAUSE THEY DID NOT HAVE HEAT, FOOD, WATER OR SHELTER.
