Often, the prisoner was only admitted when he was no longer able to recover. In addition, most camps had neither adequate medical facilities nor sufficient medication. Prisoners who were no longer fit for work were murdered or sent back from the external transports to the mother camp, where most of them soon died. From the spring of 1944, transports of sick people also arrived in Bergen-Belsen. In the photo: Sick prisoners in Buchenwald, April 1945, shortly after the liberation of the camp. ..." ...plus, an enlarged image of the same subject is included. This 14" x 11" was published in the late 1960s-early 1970s by Documented Photo Aids, who sold Historic images, like this one, to schools/colleges for education. Bergen-Belsen began as a camp for Allied prisoners of war. After it was turned over to the SS, it became a Nazi concentration camp in 1943. Beginning in fall 1944, the SS deported to Bergen-Belsen large numbers of prisoners evacuated from Nazi camps further east. Approximately 50,000 people died in the Bergen-Belsen camp complex. Among them was Anne Frank, the most well known child diarist of the Holocaust era.
