Hauptsturmführer Fritz Klein (bottom centre) with other unidentified SS Administration Staff load the dead onto a truck. The original caption reads as follows: - Remove The Dead For Burial. - S.S. troops who had been posted at Belsen, Germany, load trucks with the bodies of their victims for transportation to burial grounds. British second army soldiers, who liberated the camp, look on with horror and disgust as Nazis lift emaciated bodies of the dead onto trucks.
