They performed these studies without the consent of the victims, who suffered indescribable pain, mutilation, permanent disability, or in many cases death as a result. At the Nuremberg "doctor's trial," which brought 23 German doctors to trial immediately after the war, prosecutors found 15 defendants guilty of war crimes and crimes against humanity; seven were hung. Here are some of the most notorious experiments:
Karl Brandt, Hitler's personal physician and Major General Reich Commissioner for Health and Sanitation, was one of 15 defendants found guilty of war crimes at the "Doctors Trial." He was later executed.

801 Schindler made a list of 801 Jews to
work in his factory… He sacrificed everything he had to save them. It is unknown how many survived this horrific path to death. Between Resistance Fighters and Schindler a few were saved. Always remember 6.2 Million were murdered. Please take the time to familiarize yourself with information surrounding the Holocaust.
The information contained in this Power Point was gathered from the many Holocaust Museums around the world. The music is the main theme from Schindlers List and can be found on Youtube under movie soundtracks Schindlers List. I would like to Thank You for viewing this information and hopefully reaching it for yourself. This did happen and those who say it did not are sadly mistaking.
