Description
English: SS guard women at the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp unload the corpses of prisoners for burial in a mass grave. They were recruited for this work by the Allies who liberated the camp. A convoy of British soldiers surrounds the ditch. The former guards are punished by being forbidden to wear gloves, which would expose them to the risk of contracting typhus. Pictured: Elisabeth Volkenrath (1919-1945, executed in the prison in the German city of Hamelin on December 13, 1945), Anneliese Kohlmann (1921-1977, sentenced to two years in prison), Charlotte Pliquet, Ilse Förster (sentenced to 10 years in prison, released in December 1951), Frieda Walter (sentenced to 3 years in prison) and Magdalene Kessel.
Русский: Женщины из охраны СС концлагеря Берген-Бельзен разгружают трупы узников для захоронения в братской могиле. На эти работы их привлекли союзники, освободившие лагерь. Вокруг рва — конвой из английских солдат. Бывшим охранницам в качестве наказания запрещено пользоваться перчатками, чтобы подвергнуть их риску заражения тифом. На фото: Элизабет Фолькенрат (Elisabeth Volkenrath, 1919-1945, казнена в тюрьме немецкого города Хамелин 13 декабря 1945 года), Аннелизе Кольманн (Anneliese Kohlmann, 1921-1977, осуждена на два года тюремного заключения), Шарлотте Плике (Charlotte Pliquet), Ильзе Фёрстер (Ilse Förster, осуждена на 10 лет тюремного заключения, освобождена в декабре 1951 года), Фрида Вальтер (Frieda Walter, осуждена на 3 года тюремного заключения) и Магдалене Кессель (Magdalene Kessel).
