Many died of hunger, cold and illness or were shot, a lot died from overwhelming work in factories, the construction of roads, factories, quarries, mines and mines. Thousands were dying of the whim of the camp authorities who was brutalized from everyday boredom or because, unlike American, British and French, Soviet soldiers were considered prisoners of war of the lowest category, for the death of which the guard practically was not responsible. What conditions were prepared by the German command for Soviet prisoners? How did you get captive, how did you die or survived in captivity? Who was guilty of cruelty to prisoners of war? What expected the soldiers returning from captivity in their homeland? Readers learn about this and much more from the new book by O.S. Meaning
