A huge response to details of service personnel at #belsen due to #HolocaustMemorialDay - thank you. We’ll endeavour to reply as soon as possible.

#WhatTheyFound and #HolocaustMemorialDay has really helped the archive. Clearly the 80th anniversary has been at the forefront. It’s incredible what we know now that we didn’t for the 75th. Thanks to David Baddiel for the exposure. Drop us a line if you’d like to learn more.

80 years ago today, (the 12th April, 1945), a truce. The very first allied soldier entered the camp, to ensure the truce was not a trick. The liberation itself, with service personnel and ultimately assistance, would take a couple more days. #belsen David Baddiel Simon Schama

Ian Forsyth MBE was one of the first British troops to liberate Bergen-Belsen concentration camp, 80 years ago tomorrow. He said upon arriving there: "For the first time, I realised how low mankind could sink".

80 years today #belsen. Liberated by the Allies, as British and Canadian personnel were present. Later American personnel would also help with the huge humanitarian effort. #bergenbelsen

Captain David Eric Freeman was part of 224th Parachute Field Ambulance. On 15 April 1945 Major Miller headed the medical team that first went into Bergen-Belsen. belsen.co.uk/david-freeman-…

#belsen there is no memorial, no mention to service personnel at Belsen. It has been 80 years. belsen.co.uk/bergen-belsen-…

The response for #belsen80 has been incredible. Thank you. Our email, mainly from X, is pretty full. We’ll respond to every single one in due course. 80 years on and we still learn. #belsen #holocaust David Baddiel Daniel Finkelstein
