Ms Titaeva's account reminds me of a talk I overheard while making a lantern display at a festival many years ago. It was not unusual for there to be an information/education tent at many festivals then.
The lecture overheard was delivered by a Canadian man, who explained that the 'concentration camps' were 'work camps' - hence the ironic expression 'work makes you free' - that produced products for many American and European corporations. He had studied records of the time and one interesting item that I've always remembered related to the compensation paid to these combines by the German State for the death of an inmate, which reduced the productivity of an individual camp.

I've never found it difficult to see that the National Socialist direction of travel was ultimately to the east. I'm glad, in some ways, that subsequent events have reinforced that opinion. The rest is tragedy.

I seem to recall Albert Speer testifying to that at Nuremburg, and he would know,
