"In the last months of the war, the Allied forces, including
American, British, and Soviet troops, swept through Europe. The
Nazis hastened to empty some camps to remove witnesses to their
cruelty. They crowded camp inmates into boxcars or forced the
prisoners to walk to other camps behind the lines. The forced
marches, made in winter with few provisions, claimed so many victims
that they were know as 'death marches'".
