À propos de cet audio

 In this episode, Easy Company finds a concentration camp. We've all seen pictures, or footage, of the camps, but most of the soldiers who were fighting in the war hadn't even heard rumors of the existence of them.

In doing some research, I found some footage taken by the US Army of the townspeople cleaning up after the prisoners were released, like Nixon goes to observe in the episode. It's awful, but I think necessary to watch to fully grasp what the price of this war was for so many people. I will link it below, along with some other info on the camps.

This episode is rough, and we tried to discuss it as best as we could.

Video of the the camp Easy company was part of liberating, as it was being cleaned up by the townspeople. The Text is in German, but is easily translated through Google. http://www.buergervereinigung-landsberg.de/geschichte/orginalfilm.htm
