Where did the prisoners go after World War 2?

Most prisoners, I think, were allowed to return to civilian life in their respective countries. However, some prisoners, especially in Russia, were detained for most--or all--of their lives. It's a sad thing to think about the plight of leftover prisoners. After WWII, thousands of Germans in Russia rotted to their deaths in prisons. Sure, thousands came home, but there were always some held back, perhaps for bargaining possibilities (I'll release ___ prisoners if you give me ___)


What was the Appellplatz?

The Appellplatz was a central area or square used for roll-call. (Appell - roll-call). Sometimes prisoners had to watch whippings and hangings there, too. At many concentration camps, roll-call (twice a day) was deliberately spun out and used to make the prisoners' lives a misery. Often it lasted 2 hours plus and the prisoners had to stand to attention throughout, but the SS guards walked around. On 11 (?) December 1938 at Buchenwald the numbers didn't tally at evening roll-call and the prisoners were recounted twice in freezing weather. At the end of it some of the prisoners were dead!
