During the occupation of the territory of the SRSR, the Nazis constantly resorted to various kinds of torture. All torture was allowed at the state level. The law also constantly increased repression against representatives of a non-Aryan nation - torture had an ideological basis.
Prisoners of war and partisans, as well as women, were subjected to the most cruel torture. An example of the inhuman torture of women by the Nazis is the actions that the Germans used against the captured underground worker Anela Chulitskaya.
The Nazis locked this girl every morning in a cell, where she was subjected to monstrous beatings. The rest of the prisoners heard her screams, which tore apart the soul. Anel was already being taken out when she lost consciousness and thrown like garbage into a common cell. The rest of the captive women tried to alleviate her pain with compresses. Anel told the prisoners that she was hung from the ceiling, pieces of skin and muscles were cut out, beaten, raped, bones were broken and water was injected under the skin.
In the end, Anel Chulitskaya was killed, last time her body was seen mutilated almost beyond recognition, her hands were cut off. Her body hung on one of the walls of the corridor for a long time, as a reminder and a warning.
The Germans even resorted to torture for singing in their cells. So Tamara Rusova was beaten because she sang songs in Russian.
Quite often, not only the Gestapo and the military resorted to torture. Captured women were also tortured by German women. There is information that refers to Tanya and Olga Karpinsky, who were mutilated beyond recognition by a certain Frau Boss.
Fascist torture was varied, and each of them was more inhumane than the other. Often women were not allowed to sleep for several days, even weeks. They were deprived of water, the women suffered from dehydration, and the Germans forced them to drink very salty water.
Women were very often underground, and the struggle against such actions was severely punished by the Nazis. They always tried to suppress the underground as quickly as possible, and for this they resorted to such cruel measures. Also, women worked in the rear of the Germans, obtained various information.
Basically, the torture was carried out by the Gestapo soldiers (the police of the Third Reich), as well as the SS soldiers (elite fighters personally subordinate to Adolf Hitler). In addition, the so-called "policemen" resorted to torture - collaborators who controlled order in the settlements.
Women suffered more than men, as they succumbed to constant sexual harassment and numerous rapes. Often the rapes were gang rapes. After such bullying, girls were often killed so as not to leave traces. In addition, they were gassed and forced to bury the corpses.
As a conclusion, we can say that fascist torture did not only concern prisoners of war and men in general. The most cruel fascists were precisely to women. Many soldiers of Nazi Germany often raped the female population of the occupied territories. The soldiers were looking for a way to "have fun". Besides, no one could stop the Nazis from doing it.
We can all agree that the Nazis did terrible things during World War II. The Holocaust was perhaps their most famous crime. But in the concentration camps, terrible and inhuman things happened that most people did not know about. The camp inmates were used as test subjects in many experiments that were very painful and usually resulted in death.
blood clotting experiments
Dr. Sigmund Rascher performed blood clotting experiments on prisoners in the Dachau concentration camp. He created a drug, Polygal, which included beets and apple pectin. He believed that these pills could help stop bleeding from battle wounds or during surgical operations.
Each subject was given a tablet of the drug and shot in the neck or chest to test its effectiveness. The limbs were then amputated without anesthesia. Dr. Rascher created a company to produce these pills, which also employed prisoners.
Experiments with sulfa drugs 
In the Ravensbrück concentration camp, the effectiveness of sulfonamides (or sulfanilamide preparations) was tested on prisoners. Subjects were given incisions on the outside of their calves. The doctors then rubbed the mixture of bacteria into the open wounds and stitched them up. To simulate combat situations, glass fragments were also brought into the wounds.
However, this method turned out to be too mild compared to the conditions at the fronts. To simulate gunshot wounds, blood vessels were tied off on both sides to cut off blood circulation. Then the prisoners were given sulfa drugs. Despite the advances made in the scientific and pharmaceutical fields through these experiments, the prisoners experienced terrible pain that led to severe injury or even death.
Freezing and Hypothermia Experiments 
The German armies were ill-prepared for the cold that they faced on the Eastern Front and from which thousands of soldiers died. As a result, Dr. Sigmund Rascher conducted experiments in Birkenau, Auschwitz and Dachau to find out two things: the time required for the body temperature to drop and death, and methods for reviving frozen people.
Naked prisoners were either placed in a barrel of ice water, or driven out into the street in sub-zero temperatures. Most of the victims died. Those who only fainted were subjected to painful resuscitation procedures. Subjects were placed under lamps to revive them. sunlight, which burned their skin, forced them to copulate with women, injected boiling water inside or placed in baths with warm water(which turned out to be the most efficient method).
Experiments with firebombs 
For three months in 1943 and 1944, Buchenwald prisoners were tested for the effectiveness of pharmaceutical preparations against phosphorus burns caused by incendiary bombs. The test subjects were specially burned with a phosphorus composition from these bombs, which was a very painful procedure. Prisoners were seriously injured during these experiments.
sea water experiments 
Experiments were conducted on Dachau prisoners to find ways to turn sea water into drinking water. The subjects were divided into four groups, whose members went without water, drank sea water, drank sea water treated according to the Burke method, and drank sea water without salt.
Subjects were given food and drink assigned to their group. Prisoners who received some form of sea water eventually suffered severe diarrhea, convulsions, hallucinations, went insane, and eventually died.
In addition, the subjects were subjected to needle biopsy of the liver or lumbar punctures to collect data. These procedures were painful and in most cases ended in death.
Experiments with poisons 
In Buchenwald, experiments were carried out on the effects of poisons on people. In 1943, poisons were secretly administered to prisoners.
Some died themselves from poisoned food. Others were killed for the sake of an autopsy. A year later, poisoned bullets were fired at the prisoners to speed up data collection. These test subjects experienced terrible torment.
Experiments with sterilization 
As part of the extermination of all non-Aryans, Nazi doctors conducted mass sterilization experiments on prisoners from various concentration camps in search of the least laborious and cheapest method of sterilization.
In one series of experiments, a chemical irritant was injected into the reproductive organs of women to block the fallopian tubes. Some women have died after this procedure. Other women were killed for autopsies.
In a number of other experiments, prisoners were subjected to intense X-ray radiation, which led to severe burns on the abdomen, groin and buttocks. They were also left with incurable ulcers. Some test subjects died.
Bone, muscle and nerve regeneration and bone grafting experiments 
For about a year, experiments were carried out on the prisoners of Ravensbrück to regenerate bones, muscles and nerves. Nerve surgeries included the removal of segments of nerves from the lower limbs.
Bone experiments included breaking and repositioning bones in several places on the lower limbs. Fractures were not allowed to heal properly as doctors needed to study the healing process and also test different healing methods.
Doctors also removed numerous fragments of the tibia from the test subjects to study bone regeneration. Bone grafts included transplanting fragments of the left tibia to the right and vice versa. These experiments caused unbearable pain and severe injuries to the prisoners.
Experiments with typhus 
From the end of 1941 until the beginning of 1945, doctors conducted experiments on the prisoners of Buchenwald and Natzweiler in the interests of the German armed forces. They were testing vaccines for typhus and other diseases.
Approximately 75% of test subjects were injected with trial typhoid or other vaccines. chemical substances. They were injected with a virus. As a result, more than 90% of them died.
The remaining 25% of the test subjects were injected with the virus without any prior protection. Most of them did not survive. Physicians also conducted experiments related to yellow fever, smallpox, typhoid, and other diseases. Hundreds of prisoners died, and more prisoners suffered unbearable pain as a result.
Twin experiments and genetic experiments 
The purpose of the Holocaust was the elimination of all people of non-Aryan origin. Jews, blacks, Hispanics, homosexuals and other people who did not meet certain requirements were to be exterminated so that only the "superior" Aryan race remained. Genetic experiments were carried out to provide the Nazi Party with scientific proof of the superiority of the Aryans.
Dr. Josef Mengele (also known as the "Angel of Death") had a strong interest in the twins. He separated them from the rest of the prisoners when they entered Auschwitz. The twins had to donate blood every day. The real purpose of this procedure is unknown.
The experiments with twins were extensive. They were to be carefully examined and every centimeter of their body measured. After that, comparisons were made to determine hereditary traits. Sometimes doctors performed mass blood transfusions from one twin to the other.
Since people of Aryan origin mostly had blue eyes, experiments were carried out to create them with chemical drops or injections into the iris of the eye. These procedures were very painful and led to infections and even blindness.
Injections and lumbar punctures were done without anesthesia. One twin deliberately contracted the disease, and the other did not. If one twin died, the other twin was killed and studied for comparison.
Amputations and removals of organs were also performed without anesthesia. Most of the twins who ended up in the concentration camp died in one way or another, and their autopsies were the last experiments.
Experiments with high altitudes 
From March to August 1942, the prisoners of the Dachau concentration camp were used as test subjects in experiments to test human endurance at high altitudes. The results of these experiments were to help the German air force.
The test subjects were placed in a low pressure chamber, which created atmospheric conditions at altitudes up to 21,000 meters. Most of the test subjects died, and the survivors suffered from various injuries from being at high altitudes.
Experiments with malaria 
Over the course of more than three years, more than 1,000 Dachau prisoners were used in a series of experiments related to the search for a cure for malaria. Healthy prisoners were infected by mosquitoes or extracts from these mosquitoes.
Prisoners who contracted malaria were then treated with various drugs to test their effectiveness. Many prisoners died. The surviving prisoners suffered greatly and were mostly disabled for the rest of their lives.
Why modern Germans launched a campaign about “raped German women” and how German fascists raped and killed women and children in the Soviet occupied territories. What do you know about the German genocide of Soviet citizens during the Second World War?
author Olga Talantseva, candidate of cultural studies, professor, author of more than 70 scientific works, including two scientific monographs, a member of the scientific and methodological commission for the examination of dissertations at the RIVSH, an expert site.
It is strange that many years after the Second World War, modern Germans were suddenly overcome with grief about "German women raped by Soviet soldiers." Apparently, the Germans, who are constantly reminded of war crimes, also wanted to accuse at least someone of something. But the Americans and the British, who literally wiped Dresden and other German cities with their civilians from the face of the earth with carpet bombing, are not to be blamed by the Germans according to their rank. In the same way, one cannot blame the Czechs and Poles, who committed the most massive and brutal deportation of the 20th century - the post-war expulsion of ethnic Germans from their countries. During the period of the deportation, from 12 to 14 million Germans were expelled, of which up to 2 million died. Many of them were raped German women. The Poles were especially fierce in this respect. They raped and killed German women on deportation marches. German women were also raped in the concentration camps for the Germans set up by the Poles, left to restore the economy destroyed by the war. But in today's tolerant Europe, it is not customary to condemn one's neighbor. That's what the Russians are for.
Yes, there were separate rapes of German women during the war by both American soldiers and Russian soldiers. But neither there nor there they did not acquire a mass character. For the rape of German women, Soviet soldiers were severely punished by their own command, even someone was shot for a crime.
- “In reality, the statistically inevitable cases of crimes among the fighters of the Red Army,” write our modern historians, who objectively examine the history of the war of 1941-1945, “were not widespread and were condemned by official propaganda and military justice. /.../ The myth about them was actively spread by German military propaganda at the final stage of the war in order to mobilize the efforts of the population to resist the anti-Hitler coalition.
- After the war, the propaganda samples of the Goebbels department were actively used by the United States against the USSR, which was reflected in a number of "historical studies" that are subject to justified criticism by modern authors (Great slandered war. We have nothing to repent for! Collection. - M .: Yauza, Eksmo, 2008 ).
So the Germans today, quite in the spirit of Goebbels' propaganda, and the United States during the Cold War, began their campaign against Russia. Finally, they also had the long-awaited opportunity to win back at least someone and pour out their anger on someone for the lost war, constant reminders of the Nazi past and war crimes committed. However, the Nazi past in Germany, judging by the campaign of raped German women, is not forgotten at all, since all the same old methods of Goebbelian propaganda were used here.
However, the Germans also took something from the French. Tagline: "Come on, come on!", who accompanied this next campaign against the Russians, is clearly licked off from the phrase "Quick, quick!", which became the running gear of the French during the war with Napoleon. According to legend, this phrase originates from Russian Cossacks, who, due to the rapid advance on Paris, ran into roadside restaurants and asked for food to be served as quickly as possible: "Quickly, quickly." From the Russian word "quickly" in French vocabulary a new word "bistro" appeared - meaning a small fast food restaurant.
But if the French have the phrase "quickly, quickly!" is historically reliable, then for the Germans its analogue "come on, come on!" is a modern remake . i.e. another fabrication in the spirit of that lie, which today comes in fetid streams to Russia from the West . So in Germany, a start was set for the campaign “about raped German women”, who, of course, were raped by Russians.
The Russian people themselves are usually forgiving and do not blame modern Germans for what their grandfathers and fathers did on Soviet soil. We do not blame modern Germans. But what their grandfathers and fathers did on our land is impossible to forgive. And these crimes have no statute of limitations. Never! As there is no forgiveness for the crimes of the German fascists who raped Soviet women, young girls and even children, after which they were brutally killed.
A certain British lady Gibb in the autumn of 1944, as historian A.R. appealed to tolerance and asked for reconciliation between Russians and Germans. She wrote this appeal of hers when the Red Army approached the borders of the Third Reich. The letter of the English human rights activist was also published in the Soviet press. The response in our country to this letter was enormous. Hundreds of Red Army soldiers responded to it. Here are fragments from these letters, published in their entirety in the book of the historian A. R. Dyukov.
Private Zakharov:
“Our people do not take revenge and do not forgive, they judge. If Lady Gibb lived in one of the cities occupied by the Germans, if she saw how the “nice” Germans raped her daughter, if her old mother was torn apart by tanks, if her dad died in the dungeons of the Gestapo, what would she say then? No, lady, you have no heart, you have no respect for your own people, suffering from the horrors of war."
Scout, junior lieutenant Zinchenko:
- "In 1941, German pilots shot refugees at a strafing flight. One landed - he was shot down, he was asked why he killed the children, and the corpses were shown to him. He replied: "The Fuhrer and Germany do not consider this."
Tanker Captain Fomenko:
"I have been fighting since the first day of the war. In front of my eyes in 1941, near Baranovichi, the Germans crushed about 70 women and children with caterpillars."
Second Lieutenant Zoomer:
- "The Germans took my relatives to the Kamenetz-Podolsk highway, forced them to dig holes, then shot them, and threw the children alive into the graves ... When, after this, they openly come out in defense of child murderers, I will say: this is a shame for our era!".
Lieutenant Ruzov:
“The Germans shot my son in Minsk. He was 16 months old. I want to ask the honorable lady: what did this child do against the so-called Third Empire?.. Every Red Army soldier knows that we are not going to Berlin for booty. We are going to judge the guilty, and this is not only in our interests, but in the interests of all freedom-loving peoples.”
Guard Sergeant Major Pronin:
- “/.../ Reading the lady's letter, I remembered how we entered the newly liberated village of Bukhalovo. There was no living soul there.
- In the first house we entered, we saw a child with twisted arms, he was lying in a pool of blood, next to the corpse of his mother ... If Lady Gibb and her like-minded people saw this picture, they would not dare to write about mercy ... "
Private Fomenko:
"/.../ Lady, do you know the girl Anna Tereshchenko from the village of Maiskaya on the Terek? No, you don't. And I was at her funeral.
When two red-haired Germans burst into her clean hut, she was washing. They grabbed her and raped her.
You, brought up on the best poets, can you imagine what it means to rape a proud Cossack woman? She laid hands on herself. And is it forgiven? I wish you all the best and I advise you to do useful work for the good of your country, then various bad thoughts will not enter your head.
Sergeant Vorobyov:
- “/.../ Passing by the village of Kliny, we saw a terrible picture: village boys were shot under a hill, bullets in the back of the head, girls lay at a distance, raped, with their breasts cut off, an old man and an old woman strangled separately in a pit. What did they die for, Lady Gibb? Because they are Russian? I don't know if you have children, but we, the fathers and mothers of the Russian people, cannot forgive. /.../ I want you to understand that forgiving the Germans is out of the question.”

The Germans perpetrated a massacre of civilians in the villages of Snorki and Golovitsy, Smolensk region. In the village of Snorki, the Nazis burned 16 houses along with the people who were in them. 70 people burned alive.
Fascist monsters raped 17-year-old collective farmer Alexandra Gvardeytseva. After vile bullying, they cut off her breasts and shot her.
In the village of Golovitsy, German bandits shot the collective farmer Maria Zabolotskaya with three children aged from one to six years old. one year old baby was shot in the arms of his mother.
The entire Denisenkova family, consisting of five adults and a two-year-old child, was shot.. In total, in these villages, the Nazis shot, brutally tortured and burned 166 innocent women, children and the elderly.
And now about the atrocities of the Germans against women prisoners of war: doctors, nurses, liaisons, etc. In his memoirs, the German officer Bruno Schneider told what kind of instruction German soldiers went through before being sent to the Russian front. Regarding the women of the Red Army, the order stated one thing: “Shoot!”(Fascist atrocities against Russian women).
This was done in many German units. Among those who died in battles and encirclement, a huge number of bodies of women in Red Army uniforms were found.
Among them are many nurses, female paramedics . Traces on their bodies testified that many were brutally tortured and then shot.
Torture was used on female prisoners of war, the cruelty of which medieval inquisitors could only envy: they were put on a stake, stuffed insides with hot red pepper, etc. Often they were mocked by German commandants, many of whom were distinguished by obvious sadistic inclinations.
In addition to these atrocities, Red Army women were constantly subjected to rape. The highest military ranks of the Wehrmacht were forbidden to have intimate relations with the Slavs, so they did it secretly. The rank and file had a certain freedom here. After the discovery of some female Red Army soldier or nurse, she could be raped by a whole company of soldiers. If the girl did not die after that, she was shot.
Residents of Smagleevka ( Voronezh region) were told after their release in 1943:
- At the beginning of the war, a young Red Army girl died a terrible death in our village. She was badly injured. Despite this, they stripped her naked, dragged her out onto the road and shot her.
- On the body of the unfortunate were horrific traces of torture. Before her death, her breasts were cut off, her entire face and hands were completely cut to pieces. The woman's body was a continuous bloody mess.
- They did the same with Zoya Kosmodemyanskaya. Before the demonstration execution, the Nazis kept her half-naked in the cold for hours.
Not only did the torture undermine the morale and last strength of the exhausted women, but also the lack of basic hygiene. There was no talk of any washing for the prisoners. Insect bites and purulent infections were added to the wounds. Military women knew how the Nazis treated them, and therefore fought to the last.
Ilya Ehrenburg, in his February 1943 column, gives the example of Kursk, which at that moment had just been liberated by the Red Army:
“Schools were closed. The theaters were closed. Libraries closed. What did they discover? House of tolerance on Nevsky street. Opened solemnly. Herr Dr. Vogt delivered a speech: "We bring fun to the icy desert." They didn't bring any fun. They brought the infection.
Before the war, syphilis completely disappeared in Kursk. The Germans have infected Kursk. According to German statistics, between 70 and 80 cases of venereal diseases were registered among the civilian population in a decade. The sick were sent to the city prison. Over a hundred of them were killed by the Germans.
These syphilitic baboons left behind not only ruins and a ditch in Shchetinka (place of mass executions in the Kursk region. - RP). They left a terrible infection.” The historian of the German occupation, Boris Kovalev, confirms Ehrenburg's correctness: in the Kursk archives, a huge number of registration cards of residents who contracted venereal diseases during the occupation were preserved.
The creation of brothels in the occupied territories, like all the Germans, was clearly organized and worked like a conveyor belt. As soon as the German soldiers and officers had a few days of rest, wherever they were staying, temporary brothels were organized for them, where young girls, sometimes just children, were forcibly driven. In large cities, permanent brothels were created for them.
For nine years, the Berlin scholar Robert Sommer studied documents scattered in archives and memorial complexes of various countries, talked with victims of sexual exploitation and eyewitnesses who have survived to this day, on the basis of which he wrote the book "Borthel in a concentration camp" (Sommer Robert. Brothel in concentration camp" // Taboo of the Second World War). The scientist debunked the myth that the National Socialists fought against prostitution. Rather, the regime sought total control over a highly profitable business. A whole network of brothels that covered half of Europe and the occupied territories of the USSR in those years, which were controlled by the authorities of Nazi Germany, brought huge income to the Nazis.
- "There was a whole system of sexual services in the army of the Third Reich," writes Russian journalist Andrey Vasilchenko in his study "Prostitution in the Third Reich" (http://myrt.ru/history). "Everything was taken into account and calculated: for each prostitute, "production standards", and they were not taken from the ceiling, but scientifically substantiated.
- /.../ By the way, only soldiers' and sergeants' brothels moved directly behind the troops. They settled in a village or town not far from the unit where the soldier received his leave. The same officers, who could not go far, were delivered prostitutes ...
- on house. In soldiers' brothels across the state, it was supposed to have prostitutes in the ratio: one per 100 soldiers. For sergeants, this figure was reduced to 75.
- But in the officer's one prostitute served 50 officers. /.../ After entering this job, the girls received the status of "cultural figure", which assumed the presence of special documents and a special serial number. From that moment on, their lives were strictly regulated. They constantly lived in a brothel.
- Visits to the doctor or hairdresser, they could make only accompanied by a specially assigned officer or soldier. Even this way of moving around the city was strictly determined by the occupiers - not a step to the side.
- If the "art critic" from the brothel was found to be pregnant, then the girl was obliged to work for another three months "(http://myrt.ru/history). When a German battleship moored in any port occupied by the Germans, then hard work began in the brothels of the German occupiers, women "simply remained lying in their rooms, processing up to five dozen sailors a day."
The concentration camps had their own brothels. In conditions of mass starvation, exhausting work and high mortality, some of the women went there voluntarily, others were sent to this "work" by force.
“It is unimaginable that these women had to endure: humiliation, punishment, isolation, discrimination and disease. If the sex appeal of women was used up, they were sick or pregnant, they were exchanged like a thing for new ones.
And those who worked out were sent back to the concentration camp, where, if they were not shot or gassed, they died of venereal diseases. (Sommer Robert. A brothel in a concentration camp. // Taboo of the Second World War).
As regards the occupied zones of the Soviet Union, here entertainment establishments had to be created in a new way . They weren't. On the front line, on the outskirts of Leningrad, there were bloody battles, and in the quiet rear, the Germans settled down and tried to create comfortable conditions for recreation and leisure.
- “A German soldier must eat on time, wash himself and relieve sexual tension,” many Wehrmacht commanders reasoned. To solve the latter problem, brothels were created in large occupied cities and meeting rooms at German canteens and restaurants, and free prostitution was also allowed. (Robert Sommer "The Brothel in the Concentration Camp" // Taboo of the Second World War).
In brothels, the racial origin of women no longer mattered. What mattered was their attractiveness. Women were brought there by severe hunger. The Germans, who occupied Soviet cities and villages, completely robbed everything that people had. Women in brothels worked literally for a loaf of bread, often to feed their children. In some canteens and restaurants where German soldiers dined, there were so-called visiting rooms. Waitresses, dishwashers, in addition to the main work in the kitchen and in the hall, had to additionally provide sexual services and also for bread.
It wasn't always about the food. The Germans simply forced some women into cohabitation, intimidating them with the possibility of shooting their children and relatives. In addition to brothels, street prostitution appeared in the occupied territory. For some women, it has become the only way to avoid hunger, to feed their young children or sick parents. After the war, the average incidence of syphilis was 174.6 per 100,000 people. It took Soviet medicine 10 years to return it to the pre-war level (3.5 cases per 100 thousand people) (https://dandorfman.livejournal.com/584236.html).
Note that the Lithuanians, Estonians and Latvians sometimes surpassed the Germans in their cruelty.
Watch the video of the famous historian Yegor Yakovlev about the initial stages of the German genocide:
What did the Nazis do with the captured women? The truth and myths about the atrocities committed by German soldiers against the Red Army, partisans, snipers and other females. During the Second World War, many female volunteers were sent to the front, almost a million especially females were sent to the front, and almost all of them signed up as volunteers. It was already much more difficult for women at the front than for men, but when they fell into the clutches of the Germans, real hell began.
Also, women who remained under occupation in Belarus or Ukraine suffered a lot. Sometimes they managed to relatively safely survive the German regime (memoirs, books by Bykov, Nilin), but they could not do without humiliation. Even more often - they were waiting for a concentration camp, rape, torture.
Execution by firing squad or hanging
With captured women who fought in positions in the Soviet army, they acted quite simply - they were shot. But scouts or partisans, most often, were expected to be hanged. Usually - after a long bullying.
Most of all, the Germans liked to undress the captured Red Army women, keep them in the cold or drive them down the street. It went back to the Jewish pogroms. In those days, girlish shame was a very strong psychological tool, the Germans were surprised how many virgins were among the captives, so they actively used such a measure to finally crush, break, and humiliate.
Public flogging, beatings, carousel interrogations are also one of the favorite methods of the Nazis.
Rape by the whole platoon was often practiced. However, this mostly happened in small units. The officers did not welcome this, they were forbidden to do it, so more often escorts, assault groups were engaged in this during detentions, or during closed interrogations.
On the bodies of the killed partisans (for example, the famous Zoya Kosmodemyanskaya), traces of torture and abuse were found. Their breasts were cut off, stars were cut out, and so on.
Did the Germans impale?
Today, when some idiots try to justify the crimes of the Nazis, others try to catch up with more fear. For example, they write that the captured women were impaled by the Germans. There is no documentary or photographic evidence of this, and it’s just that the Nazis hardly wanted to spend time on this. They considered themselves "cultural", so the actions of intimidation were carried out mainly through mass executions, hangings, or general burning in huts.
Of the exotic types of executions, only the “gas wagon” can be mentioned. This is a special van where people were killed with the help of exhaust gases. Naturally, they were also used to eliminate women. True, such machines did not serve Nazi Germany for long, since the Nazis, after the execution, were forced to launder them for a long time.
death camps
Prisoners of war in a concentration camp Soviet women they fell on a par with men, but, of course, they reached such a prison much less than the initial number. Partisans and intelligence officers were usually hanged immediately, but nurses, doctors, representatives of the civilian population, who were Jewish by nationality or were related to party work, could be stolen.
The Nazis did not really favor women, since they worked worse than men. It is known that the Nazis conducted medical experiments on people, women were cut out the ovaries. The famous Nazi doctor-sadist Josef Mengele sterilized women with x-rays, tested on them the capabilities of the human body to withstand high voltage.
Famous women's concentration camps are Ravensbrück, Auschwitz, Buchenwald, Mauthausen, Salaspils. In total, the Nazis opened more than 40 thousand camps and ghettos, executions were put on stream. Worst of all had to women with children who had their blood taken. Stories about how the mother begged the nurse to inject the child with poison so that he would not be tormented by experiments are still horrifying. But for the Nazis, the dissection of a living baby, the introduction of bacteria and chemicals into the child was in the order of things.
Verdict
About 5 million Soviet citizens died in captivity and concentration camps. More than half of them were women, however, there would hardly have been even more than 100 thousand prisoners of war. Basically, the fair sex in overcoats was dealt with on the spot.
Of course, the Nazis answered for their crimes, both with their complete defeat and with executions during the Nuremberg trials. But the worst thing was that many, after the concentration camps of the Nazis, were already sent to the Stalinist camps. This, for example, was often done with residents of the occupied regions, intelligence workers, signalmen, etc.
Female soldiers who were captured during the Great Patriotic War, most often subjected to much greater abuse and torment (sometimes preceding inevitable death) than men. However, even after more than 70 years since the end of World War II, the scale of these atrocities, at least in in general terms, have not been identified by historians - documentary evidence of the conditions of detention of women soldiers in captivity has either not been preserved, or is still classified.
There is actually not so much reliable information about how women soldiers who fought on the side of the Wehrmacht, the SS and other units of the Nazi army were treated, especially when you consider that the representatives of the weaker sex of the Nazi troops officially received full-fledged army status only at the end of August 1944, until that time they were only "civil servants attached to the army" - in all divisions.
It is also necessary to take into account the fact that after the war thousands of German women were interned in the USSR (as well as representatives of other nationalities who lived in the territories of states that actively helped Hitler and were liberated from fascism by the Red Army) - they worked in the Gulag camps on a par with Soviet prisoners.
It is possible that among them there was a certain percentage of former military personnel, but this topic has not been sufficiently studied to date.
The diary entries of a Soviet military officer who took part in the storming of Berlin, Vladimir Gelfand (a war veteran, died in the early 80s in Dnepropetrovsk), have long been published. Twenty-two-year-old Lieutenant Gelfand, as a direct participant in the hostilities, described such an incident that occurred on the Oder front in the early spring of 1945. The Soviet troops utterly defeated the women's battalion that attacked them - "avengers for the husbands who died at the front." Ordinary Red Army soldiers wanted to stab the captured German women in a “perverted way”, but in the end, the “sorted” submachine gunners were divided into 3 categories. The first category included ... Russians (!), the second - the wives of officers and simply relatives of the Nazi warriors, who proudly announced this, the third category - girls. The last comers were dismantled “by their beds” (about their future fate not reported), and the rest (Russians - in the first place) - were shot, without torture or abuse.
The topic of the conditions of detention of female prisoners of war of the Red Army is by far the most elaborately developed - numerous memoirs speak of the atrocities of the Nazis and their accomplices as in relation to prisoners who did not fall into concentration camps (memoirs of the divisional translator Pavel Rafes, the archive of the Israeli Yad Vashem and others ), and to those who were in the concentration camps of Germany and the countries - allies of the Nazis.
Women in the camps suffered no less than men for natural reasons - there were no basic conditions for hygiene, the opportunity to change clothes. The Nazis immediately shot Jews and partisans. In the fascist camps where female prisoners of war were kept, not only the Nazis but also the policemen, voluntary assistants from among the prisoners themselves, committed atrocities ...
Brash explained this attitude of his command towards the prisoners by the fact that by that time the Americans had already seen the horrors of Auschwitz, Buchenwald and others. Nazi camps The newspapers trumpeted it every day. The Yankees had plenty of food - they were simply deliberately not given to the prisoners: the Americans fiercely hated the Germans as a nation.
