The murderous activities of Himmler's Einsatzgruppen - or death
squads - rank high among the horrors of the Nazi regime during the
Second World War. These hand-picked groups followed in the wake of
Waffen-SS and Wehrmacht units advancing intro Eastern Europe and
Soviet Russia. Their mass murder of civilians in the occupied
territories will never be accurately quantified but is likely to
have exceeded two million people, including some 1.3 million of the
6,000,00 Jews who perished in the Holocaust. The graphic and
shocking photographs in this Images of War book not only show the
hunt for and rounding up of civilians, communists, Jews and Romani
people but the active support given to the Einsatzgruppen by SS
units and Wehrmacht units. The latter strenuously denied any
collusion but the photographic evidence here refutes this.
