== Buchenwald annex (14 April 1945) ==

On '''14 April 1945''', Headquarters XX Corps issued '''Annex No. 2 to G-2 Periodic Report No. 248''', titled “Concentration Camp Buchenwald,” prepared by '''MII Team 439-G''' and signed by OIC 1st Lt [[Malsh, William R. (01596715)|William R. Malsh]] ([[:File:MII439G_Buchenwald_Annex2_G2_PR248_1945-04-14_p1.jpg|p.1]] · [[:File:MII439G_Buchenwald_Annex2_G2_PR248_1945-04-14_p2.jpg|p.2]] · [[:File:MII439G_Buchenwald_Annex2_G2_PR248_1945-04-14_p3.jpg|p.3]]).

The SECRET three-page annex summarizes prisoner-committee information on Buchenwald (near Weimar): camp origins (July 1937), successive waves of Jewish, Austrian, Czech, Polish, Dutch, and Soviet prisoners, named SS and medical perpetrators, transfers to other killing sites (including Auschwitz, Gusen/Mauthausen, Bernburg, Sonnenstein), evacuation figures in early April 1945, remaining prisoner detachments at unoccupied war plants, doctor-record death totals ('''32,705''' excluding certain mass executions), January–April 1945 monthly death figures, burned SS records, a prisoner memorial for President Roosevelt (news of 12 April), and a screening warning about possible Nazi agents among inmates.

The same G-2 periodic-report package includes '''Annex No. 1''' (units in contact / tactical notes for 14 April 1945), signed for G-2 by '''Curtis''' ([[:File:XX_Corps_G2_Periodic_Report_248_Annex1_1945-04-14.jpg|Annex 1 scan]]) — the same Col. James O. Curtis, Jr., AC of S, G-2, XX Corps, who endorsed the team’s April commendation chain.
