WWII-era Mass Grave Unearthed
Hitler always said that the war on the Eastern front was to be a war of extermination. They needed Lebensraum (living room) and the people of Eastern Europe were in the way. Heinz Guderian led the charge into Russia in the Barbarossa Campaign, in direct violation of the non-aggression pact they'd signed with Stalin. So, when the Soviets turned the tide the Germans beat a hasty retreat. They were anxious to surrender to the Allies on the Western front. They wanted to surrender to the British, French, Americans....anyone but the Soviets because they knew that the Red Army wasn't taking prisoners.
The news today is that a previously unknown mass grave of 1,800 men, women, and children has been discovered.
