Who took the pictures from the Holocaust?

The Holocaust was the Nazi regime's shameful 'secret', and photography was forbidden in the camps and ghettos. However, some SS men did take a few photos, and there were a few carefully chosen 'official' photos of what the Nazis called 'Resettlement in Eastern Europe'. In the Lodz Ghetto, the head of the Jewish Council had a kind of photographic record kept, but this was most unusual. Many of the negatives have survived.

What arm was the number on during the Holocaust?

NUMBERSAlthough details are not complete regarding treatment of the holocaust victims, it seems that not all of them had their bodies marked with a number. Also, of all the concentration camps in Nazi Germany, it appears that only the Auschwitz group of camps (e.g. Auschwitz 1, Auschwitz 2 (Birkenau) and Auschwitz 3 (Monowitz) actually implemented prisoner numbering in a systematic way. This began in 1940, and at first the number was sewn onto the prisoner's uniform.Body marking did not start until 1941. The number was written or tattooed maybe on the chest, the back, or the left forearm; some were marked on the leg. Sometimes the number included a letter prefix to indicate the 'type' of prisoner. For example, the prefix 'AU' was used for Soviet prisoners of war. Those destined for immediate execution were often not marked with a number.BADGESStarting with Poland in November 1939, and then spreading to ther countries under Nazi domination, all Jews were legally requierd to wear badges which identified them as belonging to this particular religious/ethnic group. As an example of the seriousness of this law, the Jewish Community Council of Bialystock in 1941 warned the community that "severe punishment -up to, and including death by shooting-, is in store for Jews who do not wear the yellow badge on back and front."In the concentration camps, other badges with different shapes and different colors were introduced to identify other groups. They were worn on the chest or on the arm, sewn to the fabric of their coats, on the left side.For more details, and documentary photographs, see 'Related links' below this box.

Is the Holocaust uniquely Jewish?

The term the Holocaust (with an upper-case H) was created to refer specifically to the attempt by the Nazis, in 1941-45 to kill all the Jews that they could find. It replaced the Nazis' own term, which was 'the Final Solution of the Jewish Question'. Every event (or series of events) in history is unique.However, if you are asking whether the term also includes other victims of Nazi genocide and other Nazi atrocities there is a problem as there are two definitions in use. Professional historians generally use the term specifically for the Nazi genocide of the Jews, but in popular usage, especially in the US, the term is often used for all victims of Nazi mass murder.If you are asking whether any other people has been subjected to genocide, the answer is yes.For many Jews the Holocaust has become an important 'badge' of Jewish identity: the Jews have become the 'people of the Holocaust'.
