Liquidation of Polish Ghettos Begins

Post by Saxondog »

On June 11th 1941 SS Commander Heinrich Himmler(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heinrich_Himmler" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) issued a directive to liquidate the Jewish Ghettos in Poland,thus beginning one of the darkest episode of World War two.

I mention this as a Historical point in the war,if interested further reading is available on the following link. The record of SS Units in the Panzer Division are often subject of our modelling hobby,but the darker side of the SS is perhaps best left to other forums.
