If I had chance I'd love to ask LD a question regarding one of the points aired in that book. One of the characters mentions that one of the reasons the extermination camps were placed outside Germany was because it allowed the various life insurance companies a get out - they didn't have to pay out on deaths when the place of death was outside the Reich. <br /><br />This explanation is somewhat at odds with the more usual line - that the extermination camps were outside Germany so as to conceal the act from most Germans.<br /><br />LD's research is impecable, but I wonder where this came from?<br /><br />best regards<br />Terry KiddTerry Kiddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03888160718812027224noreply@blogger.com
