What happens to men in concentration camps during holocaust?

Answer 1

1. 'Ordinary' concentration camps were very harsh punishment and labour camps. The men had to do heavy manual work - on inadequate food. Roll-call (two or three times a day) was deliberately spun out to last 1.5-2 hours in order to make the inmates suffer. They had to stand to attention while the SS guards walked around. Minor breaches of discipline often led to public floggings; serious breaches were punished with death. 2. At extermination camps, such as the Birkenau section of Auschwitz-Birkenau, Treblinka or Belzec, most of the new arrivals were gassed as soon as possible after entering the camp.

Answer 2

Able bodied men (aged 15+ or sometimes 14+) generally had to do heavy manual labour - for example, in the armaments industry or minining - on insufficient food. From 1942 onwards the young and old were exterminated as soon as practical after arrival. At some extermination camps, such as Chelmno, Belzec, Sobibor and Treblinka, nearly all new arrivals were gassed, unless selected to help with disposing of the corspes.
