Seizing Polish Children

Germans Kidnapping children

One eyewitness of the kidnapping of children at Zamosc later recalled "I saw children being taken from their mothers; some were even torn from the breast. It was a terrible sight: the agony of the mothers and fathers, the beating by the Germans, and the crying of the children."

 

Rejected children

Some children ultimately rejected for Germanization were interned in the Dzieyzazn children's camp, where the mortality rate was very high.
