You honestly think that all the camps were in areas under Soviet control. There were literally hundreds of slave labor & concentration camps all over Europe ,also WE liberated parts of what were to be parts of the Soviet zone of control . Unlike the Red Army our officers were allowed a degree of freedom in regard to initiative & they also got evidence hell my late Uncle Ed helped liberate the Concentration camp outside the city of Dachau.
OK, I see the problem here now. It is ignorance of history. Some folks don’t know the difference between a concentration camp, a labor camp, and a death camp. While many of you might not have the resources to visit the facilities and learn the history on-site, there are many resources available through libraries or online.
Some specifics mentioned by some of you:
Dachau - set up as a concentration camp (the first one), primarily for political prisoners although also used by others deemed undesirable.
Buchenwald - primarily a labor camp, many died from starvation and disease, (and some executions) but not an extermination center. Interestingly enough, it was operated by the Soviets after they captured it, and some folks deemed undesirable by both the Nazis and the Reds were imprisoned there by both.
For those of you with little knowledge of the subject except what you learned from your politically correct teachers, you might start with the map here:

(Just breaks down between concentration camps and death camps).
See also the list here, that designates the extermination camps.

I lived in Brooklyn NY in the 50s. I had neighbors who were Jews with tattoos on their arms.
It amazes me that there are deniers out there. People who do not have a clue and for whatever political reason deny that which happened.
Obviously very uneducated and ignorant people.
I read that Eisenhower made people from the local area come and view the concentration camp so that they could no longer deny that which happened right outside their own back door.
