ABSTRACT
Those who let themselves go doomed themselves to the care of the SS doctors in the Revier. This infirmary was constantly moved, 1 until it finished up in autumn 1944 in its final position next door to the crematorium, serving it as its antechamber. Wherever it was, every prisoner soon learned never to go near it, unless absolutely unable to stand up, at which point the choice was made for him anyway. The SS doctors who supervised the Revier made their visits for the sole purpose of selecting the patients for liquidation. 2 Three out of every four were selected. 3
