After World War II, no expense was spared to educate the American public
about the evil perpetrated
by Hitler's Third Reich and the horror of the
concentration camps. The photograph below shows a travelling
exhibit of
photographs, enlarged to twice the size of life. This photo in the exhibit,
entitled "The living dead"
was taken at Buchenwald.

His left arm, doesn't look at all natural against the wooden post
Which is why it's been cropped on this display photo at the Buchenwald museum.
This photo was taken on 29th January, 2012, and uploaded onto the web by philFlickrID.

This suggests strongly that the photo was staged.
As we know, this picture was not taken on the day of liberation, but 5 days
later.
The photographers were setting up pictures that complemented the
propaganda that was being prepared for the world.
Probably some sick prisoners
were brought in to Barracks 56 to make it look like the general population of
the camp was starving.

Below is another Buchenwald liberation photo taken on April 14, 1945, just two
days after the famous photo.
US Army Signal Corp photo of Buchenwald survivors, April 14, 1945
It shows a barracks full of Buchenwald survivors who appear to be in very good
health and are warmly dressed, too.
They are fully dressed while in the famous
photo the sick men are shirtless to expose their bony frames.
The photographer
has packed the men above into this barracks to give an impression of
overcrowding.
Or maybe just to get as many in one picture as possible for
souvenir purposes? At any rate, this is a strange comparison with Barracks 56.

The former Buchenwald prisoner shown in the photo above is
Joseph Anselma Brau, who was a French political prisoner. He was the chief
doctor at the camp after Buchenwald was liberated.

concentration camp.
On April 26, 1942, a Polish forced laborer,
who worked at Bauern Schmidt's couryard was beaten to the point
of unconsciousness by a German policeman, Albin Gottwald. Two
Poles took revenge on Gottwald and stabbed him to death on a
forest path between Poppenhausen and Einoed. The two Poles then
escaped. One of the two Poles, Jan Sowka (b. 10/19/22 in
Thayngen, Switzerland) was apprehended shortly after his escape.
On May 11, 1942, nineteen prisoners from Buchenwald were taken
to the place in the woods where Gottwald's body had been found.
The Buchenwald SS built three gallows -- two consisted of ten
hooks each, and one was a single gallows. The nineteen Polish
prisoners were positioned behind the gallows, and Jan Sowka
stood on the opposite side. The executions began at 10:50 where
the prisoners and Jan Sowka were hanged one after another on the
single gallows. At the end, they were all hanged from the two
group gallows. Hundreds of Polish forced laborers from the
surrounding area were rounded up and forced to watch the
executions.
Wasn't Auschwitz meant to be an extermination camp?
Not exactly that dead looking. Captioned just

Buchenwald was not set up as a camp for Jews, but there
were 4,000 Jews among the 21,000 prisoners there when the camp was liberated.
They had been brought to Buchenwald after the death camps in the East were
abandoned. On November 10, 1938, following the pogrom
in Germany and Austria known as Kristallnacht, there were around 10,000 Jewish
men brought to Buchenwald. They were released around two weeks later after
promising to leave Germany or Austria within six months.

"Execution room" in basement of crematorium building.
This is an underground morgue.
Some of the Buchenwald prisoners told the American
liberators that the hooks were used to hang the bodies to keep them straight
before rigor mortis set in. At Dachau, the bodies were hung in front of the
ovens to keep them straight before they were cremated.

Lieutenant Colonel Parke O. Yingst was born in Hummelstown, PA in 1908. In
1930 he graduated from the Colorado School of Mines and joined the Army Corps of
Engineers as a reservist. He subsequently went to work in Venezuela. During this
period, his reserve commission expired. After returning to the United States in
1940, Yingst applied for recommissioning so that he could join the fight against
Hitler. In 1942 he was ordered to active duty as a First Lieutenant in the Army
Corps of Engineers. On April 4, 1944 he was promoted to Major, and in July, he
assumed command of the 281st Engineer Combat Battalion. In April 1945 Yingst was
present at the liberation of the Ohrdruf and Buchenwald concentration camps. He
was eventually promoted to Lieutenant Colonel prior to his separation from the
army for medical reasons.
