Can you imagine coming across one of these death camps, or worse, having been held prisoner in one?
Over 400,000 Americans died during World War II fighting Adolf Hitler and the other Axis powers.
During the Allied victory in Europe concentration camps were liberated, which was a shocking sight for even for the most battle-hardened soldiers. Photojournalists documented what was found in these camps so that there would be visual evidence for the world to see what happened.
The following images were all originally done in black and white but have recently been colorized by various individuals. The colorization process makes the images much more life-like.
Caution, some of the images are graphic, particularly the latter ones.
