General Dwight D. Eisenhower, Supreme Commander
of the Allied Forces in Europe
I have never felt able to describe my emotional
reaction when I first came face to face with
indisputable evidence of Nazi brutality and
ruthless disregard of every shred of decency...I
visited every nook and cranny of the camp because
I felt it my duty to be in a position from then
on to testify at first hand about these things in
case there ever grew up at home the belief or
assumption that the stories of Nazi brutality
were just propaganda. --General Dwight D.
Eisenhower, Supreme Commander, Allied Forces,
Europe, Letter to Chief of Staff George Marshall,
April 12, 1945
