Perhaps true, but it’s hard to square this with the standard Auschwitz folklore that has the 445,000 Jews deported from Hungary being killed there in the first three weeks of May 1944.
And small beer compared with the bombing holocausts in Hamburg, Dresden, Brunswick, Darmstadt, Pforzheim, etc., where we killed tens of thousands in the space of one or two hours each time. “Bomber” Harris told me once (right) that given the choice between being gassed, or burned alive with by fire bombs, he knew which he would choose every time.
