Nazi Germany was allies with the Soviet Union. That was until Hitler ordered his men to attack his own ally! They did but were attacked and totally defeated when winter came around. They were unprepared and no match for the prepared Russian Red Army who knew the climate and what to expect.

The final solution was the plan that Hitler created to exterminate all Jews. It was in full swing during 1941. This was WRETCHED and a horrible plan. Jews were killed in the thousands and right in front of the other Jews at the camps were piled up to be burned or buried in a massive hole. This was horrible and I'm very passionate about it. The shoes and clothes were piled up to be thrown away or reused as shown in the picture.
