The News: “The Justice Department alleged that Rinkel had used attack dogs to march emaciated inmates to slave-labor sites. More than 130,000 women from dozens of countries -- Jews, Gypsies and others -- were brought to Ravensbruck during its six years of existence. More than two-thirds of them died of malnourishment, in medical experiments and in a gas chamber, according to the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum.” (S.F. Chronicle.)
The Note: Oh? Well, that’s a change from “..130,000 Jews were gassed or died of other causes ....” “A” Gas Chamber? Yeah sure... the remodeled basement passing as such.
