It was not like Auschwitz where numerous gas chambers killed thousands everyday. But Bergen-Belsen was no less cruel or horrifying. Most died at Bergen-Belsen from being shot, hung, starved to death, or killed by disease. This camp did not fit the standard organization of a concentration camp. It had several camps that segregated the prisoners. Camp officials even traded important prisoners, including Jews, in exchange for money from different governments. Bergen-Belsen was unique in many ways, but it was still a camp where thousands suffered and died under the harsh hand of Nazi leadership.\u201d \u2013 Holocaust Survivors and Remembrance Project \u2013 isurvived.org<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org\/jsource\/Holocaust\/Belsentoc.html\" >Concentration Camps: Bergen-Belsen \u2013 Jewish Virtual Library<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.eiu.edu\/%7Eeiutps\/holocaust_bergenbelsen.php\" >Bergen-Belsen \u2013 Teaching the Holocaust with the Primary Sources \u2013 eiu.edu<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fold3.com\/page\/94047639_bergenbelsen_concentration_camp#description\" >Fela Warschau Describes liberation by British forces at Bergen-Belsen [1995 interview] \u2013 Bergen-Belsen Concentration Camp \u2013 fold3.com<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>1943\u00a0 <\/strong>World War II: The <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Allied_invasion_of_Italy\" >Allied invasion of Italy<\/a> begins on the same day that U.S. General <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Dwight_D._Eisenhower\" >Dwight D.
