Newsgroups: alt.revisionism Subject: Holocaust Almanac: Herr Doctor Rolf Rosenthal Followup-To: alt.revisionism Organization: The Nizkor Project http://www.nizkor.org Keywords: Ravensbruck,Rosenthal Archive/File: camps/ravensbruck/rosenthal.001 Last-Modified: 1994/06/23 "Dr. Rolf Rosenthal was a practical man. At one time there were two German prisoners whith similar names in the revier; one died, but the death certificate was sent by mistake to the family of the other. Rosenthal calmly ordered his nurse to administer a deadly injection to the other one -- and the problem was solved. He had an affair with his prisoner nurse Gerda Quernheim (the one who drowned newborn babies in pails of water), even performed an abortion on her; but when the affair was discovered, they were both sent to the Bunker. Milena Jesenska, who died in Ravensbruck in 1944 after four years of unspeakable misery, discovered that the couple, while trysting nights at the Revier, also killed women inmates and removed their gold teeth or filings. (Buber-Neumann, Kafkova pritelkyne Milena, p. 212.)"
