This Day in History
On this day in 1945, Soviet forces reach the Auschwitz-Birkenau
concentration camps in Poland and liberate them the next morning. The Nazis had evacuated from the camps on January 17, 1945 and murder on an industrial scale (over a million) finally ceased there after nearly three years of full operation. Arbeit macht frei nicht, Armee Sovietische macht frei.
