During the Battle of the Bulge, Nazi troops sent 350 captured soldiers to the Berga camp in Germany. Some were selected on the basis that they were Jewish or looked Jewish. The soldiers labored under inhumane conditions. Over 100 soldiers perished either at Berga or during a forced march connected to it, the highest number of fatalities at any Germany camp. About a dozen or so of the 250 soldiers liberated from the camp in April 1945 remain alive today. Congressman Bachus has fought for their recognition.
