General Eisenhower and the Documentation of the Holocaust

Washington, DC
Saturday, June 11, 2011

Following the German World War Two surrender, then-General Dwight D-Eisenhower witnessed firsthand the horrific scenes of the Holocaust.  Eisenhower understood that it was necessary to document with visual evidence the atrocities witnessed at concentration camps and foresaw the era of Holocaust denial. The Eisenhower Library presented a program on this topic with law professor Harry Reicher.
