For this reason, German concentration camp guards felt like they could do whatever they wanted to the female Soviet prisoners.

Many women incarcerated in the concentration camps created informal mutual assistance groups, which facilitated survival through sharing information, food, and clothing.

Soviet women were trained to do so on account of being raised in Communist principles.

Often, the members of such groups came from the same city or province, had had a similar level and style of education, or shared family ties.

There are many reports of Polish and Jewish women who claimed they were able to survive thanks to the help of the Soviet women in the camps.

Other women were able to survive when the SS camp authorities deployed them in clothing repair, cooking, laundry, and house cleaning detachments.

Others still managed to survive thanks to other sickening habits of the German camp staff.

An Auschwitz block called Canada, sexual slavery, and brutality.

Most of the women at Auschwitz had their heads shaved, were malnourished, mortally sick, or on the verge of death.

The others, who still were considered attractive by the camp guards, were sent to work in a block known as Canada.

The Soviet women were considered particularly beautiful by the German soldiers, so many of them ended up in this disgusting building inside Auschwitz.

The name of the block came from the hope and expectations of the prisoners, as Canada had become a fantasy destination for many Europeans at that time.

It was widely thought that it was a country rich in everything.

In the Canada inside Auschwitz, women had access to food, could enjoy some basic goods such as cigarettes and water, and were allowed to take showers frequently.

They were also allowed to grow their hair.

In exchange, they had to do whatever the guards asked them to.

The women who worked in Canada were constantly followed by SS men, not only to supervise their work, but often to rob them, and many times to sexually assault them.

The commandant in charge of the SS at Canada had ordered a running water system to be built in the building to allow these women to bathe so that they would be more presentable to the ravenous eyes of the officers who chose to pervert the Nazis’ racial laws.

Shower time was a very tempting moment for those devils in uniform.

Whenever they saw these helpless women trying to clean their bodies, they stepped in to assault them.

Many of these women, although they did not experience the daily physical punishment and hardships and starvation suffered by others, lived through a daily hell of constant aggression.

To make matters worse, many of them, after having suffered the voracious sexual appetites of their captors, were forced to write postcards explaining how well they were treated inside Auschwitz in order to dispel rumors that this was in fact a torture and extermination camp.
