Best Answer
The Killers in the Holocaust
  • The death camps (and other concentration camps) were staffed by members of the SS Death Head units (SS-Totenkopfverb�nde). Between 1942 and early 1945 the death camps and other concentration camps had about 55,000-60,000 personnel at any given time.
  • In the Soviet Union and in Lithuania (and some other areas) many of the killings were carried out in open air shootings, for example, at Babi Yar (near Kiev). These murders were committed by members of the SD-Einsatzgruppen - Mobile Killing Units (literally, "Action Groups"). The men were recruited from a variety of sources. Ukrainian, Latvian and Bosnian SS units were active in the Holocaust.
  • Some allies of Nazi Germany with a long tradition of anti-semitism to a large extent slaughtered their own Jews - in particular, Croatia and Romania.
