:22:01
the defendants on trial here today...
:22:04
did not personally administer
the concentration camps.
:22:08
They never had to beat victims...
:22:11
or pull the lever that released gas
into the chambers.
:22:16
But as the documents we've introduced
into this case have shown...
:22:21
these defendants fashioned
and executed laws...
:22:25
and rendered judgments...
:22:29
which sent millions of victims to their...
:22:32
destinations.
:22:34
Maj. Radnitz?
:22:37
Your Honors, I would like to request that
Col. Lawson be sworn in as a witness.
:22:42
- Granted.
- Thank you.
:22:49
Will you raise your right hand?
:22:51
I swear by God,
the Almighty and Omniscient...
:22:53
that I will speak the pure truth
and withhold and add nothing.
:22:56
I do.
:23:00
Were you active in the United States Army
in 1945 at the close of the war?
:23:04
Yes, I was.
:23:06
Were you in command of troops
liberating concentration camps?
:23:10
I was.
:23:11
Were you in Dachau and Belsen?
:23:14
Yes.
:23:15
Were you present when the films
we are about to see were taken?
:23:18
Yes, I was.
:23:47
Okay.
:23:56
The map shows the number of
and location of concentration camps...
