Just wondering why everyone is typing in German??? I'm sure quite a few readers would like to read what is posted as we all seem to be learning from each other. Also, why is this subject even debated??? Both German and Russian forces commited these acts and each blames the other on why they did it. ...

There was a TV show on this a few months back on the CDN History channel on just this subject. There were prisoners and Jews used to assemble the V2. 1000's died due the starvation, exposure etc. If I am not mistaken (though I usually am) the camp was named Dora.
