They were responsible for shooting anyone who tried to escape. Beyond that, just about any atrocity you can imagine was allowed. German concentration camp guards and other Nazi's were guilty of torture, vivisection, human experimentation, rape, murder and starving their prisoners. Some of their experiments were performed by what is still a well known aspirin manufacturer as they attempted to discover the effects of other drugs. Personally, I do not allow any products from that company in my home.

The concentration and extermination camps were notguarded by Jews. In the ghettos in Poland, the Jewish Councils were required to police themselves. In practice, the only alternative was to be policed by the SS.

I just so happened to have completed research and editing of a war journal by a World War Two soldier. He happened to be stationed in the town of Dachau, not far from the concentration camp and used Nazi SS POW's

kept at Dachau after the war, to unload and ship supplies to "Displaced Persons."

Dachau Concentration Camp for instance was the first camp to be established by the Nazis. A major facility adjacent to the camp grounds was a center to train Nazi SS guards for concentration camp duties. Although male guards outnumbered females, their were nineteen SS female guards at Dachau.

SS Guards, were known as "Storm Troopers," and were first used as "Protection Squadrons." They were the elite guard of the Nazi party. Made up of local police and civilian authorities, they organized detention camps to incarcerate and detain, political opponents of the Nazi party.

Until August 1934 the Nazi concentration camps were run mainly by the SA. Later only the SS was allowed to run them.
