this in robin's brook. germany 90 kilometers north of berlin. the. com and i o, yes, this name is in the cinemas with one of the most notorious, not supposed traces. i specially built to house women and children. i find 1945 over 130000 female prison, pass through revenues. i punish women were the largest group and concentrated

many of them. i more than 90000, died in robins from 70 percent of those sent to this day, the deserted houses of the ss gods, remain homes of offices under the command of one of the most feared and powerful men in germany. heinrich himmler, the man with whom count folk, bernard arch, would have to negotiate to secure the release of scandinavian prisoners on the one hand, then a dutch wanted to save as many prisoners as, as possible. on the other hand, negotiating with the leading nazi, i came to some extent implied recognizing it

as the kind of partner. so it's a dilemma if you catch trying to tooth tracy. but for bernard arch, there was no choice. on the 19th of february, 19453 days off to his arrival in germany, he was taken up and then a sanatorium at her mission, not far from revenue broke. he was brought here to meet himmler, that his filler in the sanitarium grounds. at the negotiating table, similar flatly rejected, burned adults proposal for the release of all scandinavian prisoners but bern, adults achieved one major concession that norwegian and danish inmates should be

moved to a camp where the swedish red cross would be able to support them. but camp was called night and gamma 9 gamma was the camp which was nearest the danish border. so he hoped that time of the similar with whom he was negotiating would say, okay, take all the scandinavian prisoners back home. and then he wanted to be as near to the danish border as he could. and this was why they chose 9 gamma as a place. the 3 days after meeting him not adopt was back in sweden, working hard to assemble a rescue. expedition with 300 volunteers were quickly identified offices and soldiers from the swedish army,

with red cross doctors and nurses among the adults. ah, the swedish transport mer to be allowed in germany to collect scandinavian prisoners from other concentration camps and move them to new incoming. the allied forces by now in control of the skies over germany were informed of the plan. ah, their response would give the whole campaign its name. bernard up spoke to some commander of the allied forces and said, okay, we are doing the threats to action and please don't fumble. and then the soldier said, no, we can't guarantee you that. so it's better if he came to white or if we can see

which buses belong to arrest you action. and so they decided on painting the bus is white. and they decided to put the swedish slack to painted on the roof so that the same could see these are non german buses, but these us canadian bus ah, on march the 8, 945. the 1st column of swedish buses, the white paint still red, boarded a fairy in the swedish hopes of moment. mm. 4 days later, the vanguard of the expedition reached the place, spurn dot, had chosen as its headquarters in germany, or friedrich through castle. all the castle was owned by prince

auto. from bismark, the grandson of germany's island chancellor. his wife and marie kingdom was swedish. when i'm a 100 meter, amelia's banner dot presented limit folk bernard dell. my mother was friendly with the bernard dot family and especially with an adult. i his who came here a lot to negotiate with the representative of the 3rd, right. when he did that bulk of an adult, always stayed here over night, or to be got on with my mother, or rather with my parents. very well. she said, good push done from bismark, careful home that freed this room was ideally placed close to the danish border. and just 20 kilometers from 9 gamma o

device booster. here units and tyler, stella jackson boat as well in for the school on board. and the white buses were headquartered in the zacks involved. forrest an entire year in friedrich room for she was sent out to various different areas of germany, to pick up prisoners from the concentration camps of to name and to try wherever possible to take them back to scandinavian, avi and sibling in the 1st phase of the evacuation started on march, the 15th, the white buses divided into 2 platoons. around 40 s s, and guess stop or liaison officers were attached to the expedition. the 1st platoon headed east to the campus, sexton house, and the 300 kilometers away. steve young musson,

a swedish red cross volunteer, accompanied them as a motorcycle escort nearer the compton section house this morning. so when we finally arrived in, sucks, 1000 comb with the gates were open and a lot of norwegians came out in a fairly orderly way that norman was i don't over the 1st us still. and when they took the 1st steps more 3 years towards freedom, there were no play with that was an experience stood up lives, huge experience, forecast really me the 2nd white passage platoon headed south to doco,

shown belk at mount towels and they took with them the detailed lists of danish and norwegian prisoners being held in nazi custody. the list helped the people from the rescue mission to know whom they searched in which camp. so they took the lists and went or drove until the concentration comes and they could read out. mr. anderson, mr. jensen and so on, must be here. so we search for him and he is to come to the bus and we take him with us. so it made it very easy in that part for the rest you action that the lists were there. but within 2 weeks, the white buses campaign had become a victim of its own success by

late march, more than 4500 danish and norwegian prisoners had been evacuated and brought to the noise gamma camp which was over capacity even before the 1st white bus. arrived mm montgomery had been billed for 2500 prisoners. and at the end, shortly before the scandinavians were brought you, there were 14000 prisoners. so the camp was totally crowded, and the people were dying because no one had an old bed and there was not enough to eat and so on. the germans insisted that if the evacuations were to continue, the swedish buses would have to transfer 2000 inmates of noise gamma away to other attempts. on the 27th of march,

the swedish yielded to the german demand the white buses designed to save scandinavian prisoners. when now carrying hundreds of others to an unknown future as far as we know, not many of them made it because they were so ill and dying that many, many of them died during the transports in the swipe buses, 2 other concentration camps. and this was a problem for the scandinavian prisoners knowing that those people had been brought away in order to give them space. they hadn't asked for this. they were guilty but, but they felt they were guilty because they are better alive, was made. other people die.

this terrible task complete the white buses could return to their job of collecting more scandinavian inmates from camps and prisons scattered across nazi germany. and by the beginning of april, 1945, some, 7000 danish and norwegians had been brought together in 9 gamma but the ultimate purpose was still to be achieved, getting all the scandinavian prisoners out of germany, and away to safety and sweden. oh, oh. once more, count fulton been adult, the driving force behind the expedition returned to germany. the himmler

agreed this time to the transfer of the sick and of all female scandinavian prisoners. this by the 18th of a move and 1200 sick prisoners had arrived in sweden. i the following day british forces arrived at the river elder. practically within sight of noise. ah, by now german control of the camp had evaporated. the through the 1st of the german soldiers it,

i think most of them ran and hit. at that point, when the war was almost over, there was nothing they could do to let what is called all. and it wasn't easy being a german soldier. no, not at all. if they were out on the streets, they were terrible anything which marked them as being a german the in the chaos now engulfing germany. evacuation of the camp became a matter of logistics rather than permission. ah. danish passes said now joined, relieving exhausted swedish volunteers. ah, by april 20th, hitler laughed birthday, 4300 norwegians and danes. i've been rescued from noir gamma.

ah, most were brought to a reception center set up in a spot in the swedish city of ram. ah, today, this memorial beyond the waves in the grounds of the spar is dedicated to the efforts of the white buses expedition but the white bus volunteers were not finish and the bus driver came from sweden and denmark. they told us that it was very cruel to see other people, other prisoners who are non scandinavians, standing there, seeing the white buses, seeing the red cross and laughing and yelling and thinking they would be rescued now because breakfast buses were arriving. and then they had to say, no, sorry,

we are only taking the scandinavian prisoners in. no dot wanted to try to save those. they had been forced to leave behind. the, the to return would mean, facing a new danger. allied forces were affecting virtually anything that moved on german roads. on the 15th of april, the white classes left free, drew on their most dangerous mission, yet a long trip south to teresee and that in what is today the czech republic. oh nathan. we stayed over night in that

s and stuff and there were 400 juice. i think it was families we were picking up there. so we went there or are there not any yoga sold? and during the night while we slept at the, they loaded up the buses. i think everything was ready and there was, there were some complaints. one baby carriage is what we had to throw them away. that i remember the ah, after a perilous return journey, they achieved what looked impossible just weeks earlier in thank you, eating 424 danish jews. ah, the jews didn't come 1st. mrs. effect his nothing to make friends about because situation was much would understand the situation. germany also under what

conditions may could squeeze the ss and himmler haven't done other good stuff saying while i'm coming here to i wanted to ask if you could do that. but after a while quite another job, whereas killed me, i been, adults. next goal was reverence broke and the release of french women helped me with the advancing soviet tommy just days away. himmler unexpectedly agreed to the evacuation of the entire camp. women of over 20 nationalities therefore will make your palms corina. well there were many polish women notes about it pretty and among

them there were 3 women that were awhile up to their pregnancies were well it's so the way and some of the fro got back to the someone asked the guards. it was how come there was so many pregnant women born and the chairman said that it was on the spirit began, did you hear me? oh no. so we have this chief medical officer with us on hold on with his name and he told the person in charge that one of them would probably become a mother during the night. a handed n road over over be borne up or do you know where the dome in those kind of a pair of bits. so they put it out a bus, which they called her albin. they fitted it out like the maternity ward. and the 3

women were kept in there with any of them on one of them gave birth to us on that night. i in the closing days of april, the white buses transported some 10000 women to sweden. ah ah, at the end of the month with soviet troops battling their way into berlin. i don't hitler committed suicide. the war

in europe had just a few days to run on may the 1st, the swedish white buses came home to melman with all except one volunteer. they've been got records to document that out of it so that it is gone. if obviously that if you need don davis administrator, we cannot transport it up or nobody got concert classrooms, negative thing instead of already and that was then you know

another of me to read or add about ahead better or you i ended up job about and then you then change up, so it's good or out of them, some new them or not, or are you me didn't leave a message on the after the german surrender, the buses would return to bring another $10000.00 prisoners to sweden. i 30000 lives saved by the way the buses, at least 10000 would use, ah
