Millions Of Nazi Documents Are Being Made Available To The Public
December 17th, 2006Barbie just e-mailed this to me. 60 Minutes is doing a profile tonight on documents related to the Holocaust being released to the public:
“Seized when Germany fell to the Allies in 1945, the documents were deposited in an archive in the German city of Bad Arolsen and have been tightly controlled for privacy reasons ever since. Sitting on 16 miles of shelving, they number 50 million pages covering 17.5 million victims, not only Jews but also millions of slave laborers, political prisoners, homosexuals and Roma.”
I visited Yad Vashem in 1992 right after graduating high school and I was a mess. I’ll be glued to the T.V. tonight. It’s THAT important.
