1 Million German Women and Children Kidnapped and Put into the Gulags

This story is only about a fraction of German civilians taken to the death camps by the Soviets. But German citizens have also been kidnapped and taken to work camps in France, England, the U.S...

At the conference of Yalta in February 1945, the victorious Allies  agreed to the most cruel crimes against humanity in their crimes against  the German people. For these crimes, committed by democrats, the  leaders of the 'civilized' world ... The perpetrators,  however, had the subjugated Germans hanged and made sure that during the  show trial against the losers of WWII, German children and German women  were murdered in death camps. At the end of WWII the Red Army kidnapped nearly 1 Million German women and children for heavy labor in the Soviet Union. Shoving them with rifle butts, the Soviet soldiers drove the young  women and children into railway cattle cars. Forty or more people they  squeezed into the smallest space. Rapes by the Red Army [*estimated  5,000,000 women and children were raped all over Europe, primarily after  the war] members before the departure from Germany contributed to  lifelong trauma. Between January and May of 1945 [alone during this time], the Red  Army received the order to drive German civilians into a collection throng. Soviet soldiers kidnapped more than a Million Civilians and took  them to the Soviet Union.

Among them were 864,000 [civilian] women.  Children and a few thousand female support workers of the German  military and Red Cross make up the difference.The victors called their program 'forced labor  reparation work' for the rebuilding of the Soviet Union demolished by  the German Wehrmacht. It was actually the Soviets who burned  everything to the ground they left behind every time they retreated. The  German soldiers fed the starving Russian civilians left behind.] On the death march to the camps of the Soviet Gulag, the captured  women and children starved, and thirst tortured them.  Many died on the transport." Terror is connected to the names of the many camp locations of the penal colonies and work camps, which is felt even today: Kopeske and Tscheljabinsk east of the Ural, Kemerowo in Siberia, Petrosawodsk/Karelien and thousands of others. That's where they lived;  that's where they starved; where they sweated in hard labor, and that's  where they died.  The youngest under 1000 women  and under-age girls in Penal Colony 517 / Padosero was a twelve year  old girl.

"In July 1948 I was able to "go home," [*ethnic Germans (Russian citizens) who fled Russia for safety and were caught, got execution or a sentence of 10 years] but my homeland no longer existed," said Berta Sczepan. The women struggled in wood clearing  work, in street building, and in sawmills. At the Onegasea they build  railroad tracks, froze to death constructing a channel at the Arctic Sea  at -40 Degrees Celsius (-40 F). Pouring concrete, they tore their hands  open, and their lungs ached in the lime distilleries. In the Donez  basin and near the Ural they were forced into the coal mines. Irmgard Reimann, 77, says: "Many of my friends died on the way to the  camps behind the Ural. They Soviets just threw the dead off the  railroad cars next to the tracks. "All the years in the Siberian coal mines I was underground eight to  ten hours a day and had very little to eat," reflects Margot Gerhard,  72, on her 5-year martyrdom.

The Soviets forced the women to the hardest wood felling. The absolutely meager food rationing and the suffering  of dysentery had weakened us very much," comments Ursula Seiring, 76,  looking back. "Every second one of us died of Typhus or exhaustion." (Anna Schlemminger) [The survival rate in the labor camps was 50%.] Anna  Schlemminger, 80, was kidnapped by Red Army soldiers at 24 years of age  on Easter 1945 from East Prussia: "Most of the time, our tormentors paid the income only when they felt  like it ...  And furthermore, the women had to pay for their food with such  prices as 10 Ruble for a bucket of potatoes, 4 Ruble for a cup of milk, 3  Ruble for 1200 gram of bread.

Martha  Gruener, 73, remembers. If they met the  required norm of felled trees at the Arctic Sea ... With  the high death rate of 30 to 40 per day out of about 3,000 prisoners,  the numbers never really matched up." "Some who were completely  desperate took their own lives; some of the women even drowned  themselves in the toilet.  At the end of 1950, about 300,000 forced laborers returned via  Frankfurt at the Oder in the East and the lower Saxony Friedland in the  West. Hundreds of thousands died or went missing. No one has exact  numbers.  The Soviet  Jewish government primarily hunted down ethnic Germans in Russia who  were kept in camps until 1955 or even 1965, depending on whether they  had another 10 years slapped on them for an additional imaginary reason.  The plight of the ethnic Germans in Russia are the most hidden part of  the crime as the government of Odessa, Ukraine, that committed these crimes was fully Jewish. Olga Hahn, 74 years old today, was kidnapped when she was 18 years  old. According to the old war prisoner compensation law, she received  570 Mark for her martyrdom... Martha Gruener received 131 Mark as a  "hold you over" compensation on her return in November 1949. Eva  Martensson was handed 300 Mark and a can of condensed milk from the  Citizen's Registry in Hamburg after more than four years in the forced  labor camps.  Read more ...
