Not sure I really get that you're asking that question, but on the basis that you honestly don't know (and if not then you need to), they burnt them in specially built ovens that had minature rail tracks leading up to them from the gas chambers so they could move the corpses more efficiently.

Yes, everything did look 'old': hadn't occurred to me that it had been rebuilt - which was stupid of me as I have been to Ypres loads of times and know full well that it has been rebuilt! It sounds as though you have been in a position to hear some interesting stuff and live in an interesting part of the world. Interesting how this thread has progressed: for such an emotive subject there have been some good posts!

They don't, because they want to stay in with Turkey. They don't because they claim a monopoly on suffering. shoefiti on "the NAZI thread." http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/the-nazi-thread/page/2#post-301984 Tue, 21 Apr 2009 07:51:27 +0000 shoefiti 301984@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/ @ trailmoggy - i just think the Japanesse were far more enjoing the murdering than Stalin, bit more evil if you will.
