Mobile Killing Squads & Death Marches By: Brett Strawn
What is a Mobile Killing Squad? • A mobile killing squad is are German that go into towns or cities and kill any Jewish person in their sight. The Mobile Killing Squads were created after Germany was finished with the Soviet Union.
What is a Death March? • A Death March is when the Jewish people from a concentration camp are taking out by German officers, while they would walk German officers would brutally hurt people and if some people could not keep up in the walk or they collapsed, those people were shot.
Mobile killing Squad actual event! • On the Eve of the Jewish New Year, the German mobile killing squads went into a town in Lithuania, captured around 4,000 men, women and children. They held them for two days without food and water and the next day they were taken to a cemetery, knelt down and shot to their death into an open grave.
Event about Death Marches • This story is about an actual survivor of a Death March, and he was pushing a very heavy object and was moving along and his friend was doing the same and just laid down and seconds later he was shot. His main concern was to survive the day.
Summary • These two topics tie in together because, the Germans had the people walking into their death and they did not really know it. It is very unfortunate because millions of people died just in these two categories.
