Shofar FTP Archive File: camps/auschwitz/request-for-truck



A letter asking for a truck to bring Zyklon-B to Auschwitz; uses the
standard camouflage term "resettlement of Jews" to refer to
extermination. Another such document asks for "material for special
treatment" - another term used to disguise extermination.
