In April 1945, Army Lt. Beatrice Wachter was a nurse assigned to the 51st Field Hospital when members of her unit entered the Nordhausen concentration camp following its liberation. She wrote a letter to her husband describing what she witnessed. The letter was later printed in her local newspaper. An excerpt from her letters states, “I’ve seen the most horrible sites that I hope I will never see again as long as I live.”
