Videotape testimony of Robert C., who served in the United States 1st Army, 104th (Timberwolf) Division during World War II. He recalls the division's rapid progress toward the Elbe River; arrival at Nordhausen concentration camp shortly after liberation, where he remained for about a half hour; seeing emaciated, numb inmates wandering out through the gates; deciding not to enter the camp alone; and continuing with his division east. He discusses the importance of preventing a recurrence by keeping the memory of the Holocaust alive and notes his division will soon complete its history, including photographs of Nordhausen.
