In Germany,
Hitler has decided on a final solution to eradicate the "inferior"
races of the world. He calls it the final solution. He claims that the Jewish
people have infected the German race, and they must be destroyed. For the past
few months, the Jews have been taken to ghettos where they are separated from
society. Recently the German army has raided the ghettos, and anyone that has
been deemed unimportant, has been sent to work camps where they will eventually
be killed. The only Jews that are allowed to stay in the ghettos are Jewish
Essential workers. The Jewish Essential workers are given a blue card, so if
any German soldiers were to ask them if they were essential workers, they could
pull out their blue card.
The Einsatzgruppen, German
for "task forces", have been systematically killing
"inferior" races in the territories that they conquered in Blitzkrieg
and Barbarossa. After the invasion of Poland, many work camps have been
constructed. One of the largest is Auschwitz. Auschwitz contains many camps
including, Birkenau, which serves as an extermination camp. Dachau, which is
another work camp and was the first in Germany. It is located in the German
state of Barvia. Another camp, Bergan Belsen, it was first used as a prisoner
war camp, but is now being used as a work camp used to work Jews until then
cannot work anymore and die.
