How did the soldiers treat the prisoners during the Holocaust?
The treatment of German POWs (prisoners of war) varied depending on their captors. The Soviet Union used most of its German POWs for hard labour, and many of them perished. Many others were kept till 1955 as bargaining counters. On the whole Britain treated German POWs well. Obviously, there were times when a sudden advance led to a large number of soldiers being taken prisoner at the same time. which often caused practical problems. Very few soldiers (including SS men) were put on trial.

The best moral codes are constantly being re-evaluated and evolving, just as the best people are constantly growing.
