Colonel Sink arrives with the battlefield surgeon, Winters and Nixon are told they must not continue feeding the survivors. The surgeon claims the survivors' vital systems are unable to handle massive food intake, and they need to be closely monitored during their recovery. The prisoners are forced to remain inside the barbed wire fence of the camp, to prevent them scattering from the area and potentially spreading diseases, an announcement which Liebgott is ordered to make. He does so, promising the prisoners it is only temporary and food, supplies and medicine are coming, but the survivors' pitiful protests cause him to break off in tears.

@@rogersheddy6414blah blah blah, the nazis said similar things
@stonem0013
You really didn't pay much attention in school, did you?
@@rogersheddy6414 The Nazi’s promised them food, clean clothing and a nice warm shower after being locked in the cattle cars on the trains for days to weeks. They were instead shot, beaten, or sent to get their showers…only the shower heads actually dispensed gas that killed them by the dozens. You have to remember they kept many of those who were still alive in the camps by the end of the war as slave labor, the weaker and less healthy of them having already been “exterminated”….and to keep them working and toiling away the Nazi leadership often used the technique of “ dangling a carrot in front of the donkey, always just out of reach” for years on them by this point. It is very likely the more detailed and elaborate the promises made were, the less likely the poor people in the camps were to believe them at all. I’m not saying this is a fact that applies to every case at every liberated concentration / work camp, but it was definitely a real concern and problem for the liberators that caused a lot of difficulty and friction between them and the soon to be liberated Jews at first. They had been told by the previous men either guns that held them by force in the camps that the leadership knew what was best for them and now they were hearing it again….and on top of that most had endured awful physical and psychological trauma that would effect their ability to think and process things rationally.
It's called refeeding syndrome, and it's very dangerous.
It's crazy how kindness can seem so cruel
It's also why water fasting can be dangerous when you do it for an extended period of time
hugely dangerous ,learned about it in EMT school for FD
first symptoms are chilling fever and nausea followed by blackouts scary stuff
Iirc hundreds died at other camps that didn't stop feeding the inmates.
It's a painful death too.
Imagine being the soldier who also speaks German so you have to order those men to stay there behind those gates. Damn…..
Difficult, however I suspect the inmates knew the Americans would ensure their continued care and recovery from such a horrific experience, seeing that they would also possibly become potential witnesses in any following criminal proceedings against guards, commanders of the camp and higher-ups responsible for the administration of the concentration camp system.
Liebgott was an American Jew so it was even harder for him. He was speaking Yiddish to them not German
@@ourtube4266 Joseph Liebgott was born in Detroit, Michigan on May 17, 1915. His parents were immigrants from Austria. Although Jewish by descent from his mother, he and his five brothers and sisters were baptized and brought up in the Catholic religion of their father.
They took a couple of liberties when making the HBO series.
A Jewish soldier that speaks German. Even more heartbreaking.
In order to save their lives? I don’t see the issue
As I understand, many of these POW actors were actually cancer patients which is why they looked the part. Many were also dying literally from their diseases but wanted to partake to make this movie realistic.
God bless them on their journey. They made an amazing part in an amazing series.
Say what? Any source?
Got any proof of that?
Yes the proof is both World Wars see the English cut all supply lines to Germany along with our help but many many Germans were dying of starvation and the simple fact of the matter is it was just a whole lot of people starving in one place bc when the Germans left the pow camps well the people in them didn’t just leave they figured well we should stay in the facility and keep warm why go out into the woods while we’re starving even the German soldiers running the camps started to starve so they hopped in vehicles and left bc it wasn’t sustainable any more they had lost the war essentially
I wondered about that.
This a Medical factor of severe dehydration and starvation. Cruelty is not the intention.
That's what makes it heartbreaking. It's a situation where trying to do the right thing (get them food and water and let them be free of that hell) is just going to get a lot of suffering people killed. For the prisoners, it was as if their long-awaited hope was snatched away from them. They were the ones who survived being worked to death, to finally have freedom in sight... only to be put back into their cages by their liberators and told they won't be given enough food to feel full again.
Sure, in hindsight I hope they all understand why it had to happen that way, but that doesn't make the moment any better even if they tried to do it right like refurbishing the barracks to actually be livable and making sure everyone got food, water, and medical treatment.
I attended a university lecture where a Holocaust survivor told us how many of them ate themselves to death when the Americans liberated them. He and his father knew better and restricted their food intake.
Living in the land of plenty as we are right now. It would be impossible for us to imagine the horror and pain and sorrow these camp prisoners felt. Especially when they saw the light of hope and were told they had to go back inside the darkness again. I'm sure that many of them didn't understand why they had to be put back in the camp and I would say the same thing goes for The allied soldiers who rescued them as well.
Our greatest generation
Even though the soldiers told those people that it would only be temporary, the mental torture they faced would not allow them to believe the soldiers. They probably thought it was just more mental torture, but this time, by the ones who were supposed to be the real good guys. Absolutely heartbreaking!! 💔
A lot of these people came home and beat their wives, and kids. IDK about greatest.
This was the second Holocaust.
Stalin starved 7 mil Ukrainians to death in 1932 and 1933.
No one came to rescue them.
Men, women, children, young and elderly.
And if you were wondering why Ukrainians fight the Russians with the fury and determination they do?
Now you know.
And in WWII Stalin then used Ukrainians as cannon faughter against the blitz.
So when the Nazis lied and offered Ukraine they're own independent country you now know why some Western Ukrainians were hopeful the Nazis would follow thrown they're promise.
The Bandara movement were not Nazi sympathizers.
They were desperately struggling to finally establish they're independent Ukraine.
Ukrainians love freedom,, and they're country. This born from 100's of years of Russian brutality.
Like starvation for food.. so too do people starve for liberty!!!
you don't have to imagine it, your country is assisting our "allies" to do it to 2 million starving people right now...
you think this stuff only happens in history? If you support this "war" going on right now, you're as guilty as a nazi party voter in germany was.
Visit Palestine, Uighur internment camps, Sudan, Yemen, Syria, you will not only be able to imagine it, you can even experience it first hand. Nothing is changed and history keeps repeating itself!
Dont feed these pepple they're starving a sentence that makes no sense but makes total sense when you know why
My grandfather liberated a CC in WW2 and he said men did die from eating to much because they were left starving for so long.
Refeeding ain't no joke, dealt with it a lil bit after a bunch of health issues, not quite to this degree but enough that I remember how. My heart felt while eating for a while. This mustve been agony on the hearts of everyone there medically, physically and emotionally.
The most moving scenes in BOB! When Nix looks at the horror and turns to Winters and says "Dick?"
Some folks today claim all these did not happen to fit into their narrative is sickening .
Give it 10 more years and the same will be more widely said about 9/11. It’s already happening with some of gen-z.ive seen it and it’s frustrating since I have firsthand experience
@@heatherchandler1184 lmao no you don't
@@heatherchandler1184 Good job getting trolled I guess.
Have ya ever noticed it's those on the left. The Democrats & their cronies
@@heatherchandler1184 I ain't believing any history unless I witness it myself. It's too risky to be brainwashed. I won't be tricked into any wars.
💔 This scene was so heartbreaking. Nobody should have to go through such horror.
Jesus I can feel his pain just communicating that order in German. Heartbreaking.
i can almost feel liebgott heart crying out...
I was a brig shift supervisor aboard CVN-71: after an adjuged prisoner came off of three days of bread and water;
we brig guards warned repeatedly not to eat too much of regular food on the mess deck. Too much resulted in a severe ache due to stomach shrinkage.
When you’re in survival mode you ignore things like that, or tend to. It takes seriously self control to ignore the animal in you that is fighting to survive but can hurt you or worse.
@@heatherchandler1184 Prisoners did what they were told or suffer the consequences. I did state brig shift supervisor.
@janda5816 A bread and water sentence only happens aboard ship:
After 3 days of B&W, he was moved from one man cell to a cell with 18 bunks.
A sentence of b&w was followed with up to 28 days in population cell with 17 or less men.
We escorted prisoners to the mess deck and we watched them eat. Their hands had to visible at all times. Only the ship's CO may order brig time.
@@joeavent5554 what did the prisoner do to be sentenced to that?
@@jesusizquierdo3831 Disobeying a PO, unauthorized absence repeatedly, unauthorized absence over 24 hours without informing ship his whereabouts, disrespect to a PO, drunk and disorderly conduct, assaulting crewmen, flunking piss test, failing to attend training as prescribed by ship's CO, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc...
The whole camp scene broke me... they put up something so realistic and true to history..first time seeing it was pretty unbelievable
wars can make men walking wrecks. this is one such situation. I too would have cried my heart out.
Imagine seeing starving, fenced in people. Free them, only too lock them back in for their own safety...😢
Must have been absolutely heart wrenching. But they had to do what they needed to keep them safe and healthy.
@@michaelfranciotti3900 oh 100% but it'd be so hard not to give food and water. Frick man. Heart wrenching indeed.
I know that the troops needed all the vehicles they had, but maybe leave a jeep and a few soldiers behind inside the re-locked camp? That way the prisoners would see that they're not being abandoned or neglected, because why would the US army leave their own behind? I don't know.....maybe I'm overthinking this? 😐😐
Yeah, but the JAILERS would be different: the kind that are NOT trying to kill you and would effectuate your gradual release.
I'm certain they came to appreciate it in short order once the fervor died down. Definitely hard, but they saved these folks!
Telling them that broke that kids heart. That's hard to watch
Legit dam near cried on this episode, what a show!
That has got to SUCK to be in that situation. Obviously you wanna just let these poor people eat their fill, but they could easily kill themselves doing so.
the way liebgott completely breaks down when he has to tell these men that they have to stay in the camp is so heartbreaking. those were his people.
Refeeding Syndrome. It can lead to a very painful death. There was a story of a shipwrecked crew of a fishing trawler who were rescued by a chartered superyacht. The crew and passengers of the superyacht fed the shipwrecked crew all kinds of fine foods and drinks. They all ate so much, they died of cardiac arrest.
Poor Liebgott 😢
The real soldier wasn't Jewish. the truth is shocking but funny. he was just very mad at the germans and thought it was funny his friends thought he were Jewish.
@@game_overakaokblogger6184Indeed Liebgott was Catholic born and raised. His parents were Austrian immigrants probably why he has a hatred for Germans Nazis in particular likely due the Anchluss of Austria his parents home country and maybe due to the fact Hitler himself was Austrian.
It is true. Refeeding syndrome is a pretty common cause of death.
Ross McCall was magnificent in this episode
Where can I find veteran commentary for this episode? It's not on dvd, Blu-Ray or anywhere I'd looked on the internet
Americans veteran center, the actor who played Liebgott has an interview there, also James Madio who played perconte and Michael Cudlitz who played Bull
Dick Winters I believe talked about this before or after Band of Brothers. Check Google or UA-cam
Certainly can’t refer to Don Melarky’ book. He claims to have not been there. And none of his friends remember being there. Yet Babe is adamant they were. Don was in London late on and could have missed it while having drinks with Para’ he encountered in a pub. The makers of BoB say they added the camp scenes for historical context. If that is the case, why is Babe so adamant about seeing the camp?
Men in their 80s and 90s, and you expect their memories to be perfect? @@skidmark1970
@skidmark1970 I've heard of actual prisoners of these camps having no recollection of ever being there. I'm not saying one way or another, but trauma and the way our brain will protect us from it, is a crazy thing. They could have very well all been there and completely blocked it out of their memory or maybe babe saw them at some other point and doesn't remember correctly. Memory is a crazy thing
This episode made my wife cry, and she hates war themed movies/series. I didn't notice but she told me the next day
Yeah because that it showes the reality.
It's no action war show, like Fury or Saving Private Ryan.
Hacksaw Ridge made me cry. Desmond Doss was an actual angel on Earth.
God bless Easy Company and all of our Greatest Generation ever.
This is way way better than The Pacific and Master of Air
why do we need to pick a team and play favorites?
@@prointernetuser Look, I like The Pacific and Masters of the Air, but Band of Brothers is (imo) the best series ever made.
When I watch The Pacific or Masters of the Air, I just don't get that same "spark" that I do with BoB. Masters of the Air comes close, but there's still something missing with the other two.
@@prointernetuserBecause people are allowed to have favorites and preferences. What a weird question.
Same with water. People will drink to their mental satisfaction but that will likely be over hydration which leads to a deadly electrolyte unbalance.
Making liebgott give this order was just cruel. Winters should have found another soldier to translate the orders.
He's not Jewish. if you dig you will find the truth. it's shocking but the real soldier wasn't.
He was barely Jewish and he was a POS
Maybe so but in the context of the show he was. And many of the other Soldiers mistakingly thought he was cuz of his last name.
The impression I got from the series is that he was the only fluent German speaker in the company. Who else should have tried to speak German?
Seeing this portrayed in the movies,seeing the pictures,hearing the evidence from Nuremberg,and yet still today,its ok for people to call for the extermination of Jews.
Warfare is the scourge of mankind,and this is an example of that evil. I would have cried too seeing anybody having endured what they did.
Yes, it is a crying shame
What is infuriating is the fact that it is now becoming more widely accepted and even "trendy" to deny or minimize this event to justify contemporary anti-Semitism.
Based
That, and the actual islamist notsees who did Oct 7th and perpetuate the same type of anti semitism are appropriating these events to fit their false narratives. They're so evil that they're using WW2 against the Jews they have executed.
@@Atom_gunpeople that say "based" are usually the stripe of person that is trying to deny it.
@@bbluva20 I don't know many modern Leftists who say "based" but hey, whatever psyop you wanna run while you're shoutting "Free Palestine".
@@bbluva20They're still just kids, they'll grow out of it once they get responsibilities or something traumatic happens to them and they will see life for what it is.
The worst thing to feed them is rich cheese. Dairy is not good to give someone who may have stomach or intestinal issues.
That must have been horrible 😢😢😢😢
The horror what those people went through is unbelievable. But it did happen and it is unthinkable what the Nazis did
I watched this TV series of a bunch of ordinary people put on an island to survive on their own for 30 days. By the end of 30 days they lost a lot of weight and when they got back to the resort for their first long awaited modern meal, their plate was only like one piece of bread, one apple and one banana. They were stunned, but a doctor said this is so that the body can recope.
But some of them couldn't take it, and went out to buy their own meals. They end up having a massive painful diarrhoea for 3 to 4 hours. Cant imagine these prisoners here starve for years. Damn.
So sad
Imagine creating famine as a weapon of war in 2024. Sure glad all of humanity has learned our lesson.
You’re right. The globalists are making it happen. Be prepared.
....... uhhhh no we havent
Unfortunately, genocides still happen
Now the jews are once again doing it to others, just as in the Holodomor.
/sarcasm
Is it true some ss guards stayed at the prisons while the americans arrived & tryed too surrender but were executed on the spot.
Between the health needs, nutrition and injuries, there was a severe psychological need as well.
They were there long past the war end… a lot of them were asked where they would like to be relocated to… a lot wrote Israel (British Mandate of Palestine). When asked if that wasn’t an option, they said… the gas chambers/crematorium. The gravity of their conditions can’t be undermined.
what amazed me of this is they sent the homosexual detainees right back into the camp when everyone else left them.
Based
refeeding syndrome is no joke
Your stomach will shrink if you don't get enough food. So if you go awhile without eating, and then eat a shit ton, like the situation these people would be in, the food will overflow out of the stomach and up the esophagus, which can lead to death.
So yeah, when you're starving for a while, you need to pace yourself, give your stomach time to expand again.
My uncle Samuel Boyle born the same day as Queen Elizabeth, a soldier with the HLI, was a concentration camp guard most likely Bergen Belsen. He said they couldn't let the inmates go as half of them were criminals and they were diseased and would have started outbreaks of disease.
I hated this scene, how can civilized human beings do something like this to other human beings. Unfortunately it wasn’t the first time and it wasn’t the last
Did they at least make sure that the prisoners of the camp were comfortable?
Sad to think that these actors look overfed compared to the real concentration camp survivors
i don't even have a single idea that i wil cry today, but here am i, after seeing this clip again..
You really believe this actually happened?
@@JohnDoe-yq9rt so you're trying to express that the entire atrocities during ww2 specially those camps are just hoax?
this totally happened guys!
'war is hell'

"Water is wet" someone somewhere probably
"The sky is blue" also some else elsewhere
✝️🙏🇺🇸
Not sure why this is hard knowing the overall planing and why they're giving orders. The Prisoners may not understand this but the soldiers do (in the scene).
Seems awfully similar to starving people in Gaza😢
then maybe you should tell hamas to stop the attacking Israel then they wont have to starve
no one is starving in Gaza, all videos from there show people are actually quite fat and they have a daily calorie intake of 3000 calories which is WAY more than you need to live.
A reminder that their descendants are starving out innocents now and doing the same exact thing, or worse, to others.
Sad but true. Human memory is short, and the cycle keeps repeating itself over & over.
Comparing whats going on in Gaza with the Holocaust shows how little you know about both
@@ShadoWafel It shows that you're brainwashed by propaganda and into believing that what's going on in Gaza isn't much worse in scale and in nature than what happened to a couple thousand (not millions) during the "holocaust"
@@ShadoWafel What's going on in Gaza is actually happening, for one.
You couldn't eat parmesian cheese like that. It's too dry.

@joshsteele5701 .... you .... well .... you know what you know
You’d eat a dry turd if you were as hungry as them
Thank goodness society in 2024 has learned from the lessons of the past… or not.
No, society has learnt absolutely nothing. Are you keeping track of news? What is going on in Ukraine and Gaza today is no different. Human memory is short, and the cycle will go on repeating itself over & over, until the very end of mankind.
@@stephenmani8495 was the “or not” too subtle for ya? I think you need to learn reading comprehension and develop your understanding of sarcasm.
What’s never brought up is that Allied bombing of bridges, trains, crossroads etc contributed to these conditions. German civilians in many cases were starving as well.
유대인 수용소를 해방시킨 것은 미군보다도 소련군이다. 이유는 슈용소 자체가 동구권에 있었으니 미군이 다다를 수 없었다. 영화에서와 같이 극본쓰고 뻥튀기 좋아하는 미군이 만든 오류다.
This is not true. There were 23 main concentration camps, but many they were broken down into sub-camps.
There were over 40,000 of these sub camps altogether.
While yes, the Soviet liberated Treblinka and Auschwitz, the Americans liberated the Dachau camps, and the British liberated Bergen-Belsen.
It is just as disingenuous and disrespectful to say that the Soviets did everything, just as much it is to say the Americans saved the day.
His German sounds so bad. I don’t speak German at all by the way.
then you stay quite then
Is that honestly your take away from this scene? Someone's ability to speak a second language is what you felt the need to comment on?
Ah yes, an American soldier’s German sounds bad , how surprising!
@@Please_allow_me you are probably not able to speak another language, my guess. Therefore, I understand you think in the way you do.
@@NingTang1972 I used to be quite good at German when I was learning it every day at school but that was over 10 years ago so I can barley speak a word now not that it matters. I just think given the context of the scene (coming across an actual crime against humanity) it's a strange thing to pick up on.
Most people in Germany especially Germans were starving at this time bc well it’s a war and the English had succeeded in cutting all supply lines to the German war machine and the pow camps work camps ect we’re apart of that and usually deep in the woods so when the soldiers themselves started starving along with the prisoners they got in vehicles if they had gas for them and took off and the POW’s were just left there and they could have left if they wanted to but for what reason would they want to go out into the wilderness when they can stay together in the facilities and keep warm together? Why go out into the forest and freeze to death out there while your hungry as hell to boot.
More like under new managment
Some of these extras are going way overacting
Sick and tired of these films... same theme over and over again
Fun fact, this entire series is based off of true events except this scene! Easy company never went to any camps!!
It was based of the actual liberation of Kaufering IV that did involve the 101th just not easy company
@Gloin79 yeah so I'm right lmao it didn't happen
like most of Hebrew history, fabricated and stolen from someone else
Is that an actual thing? How does any of that work
If you mean having to restrict food to starving people, then yes very much a thing, these days we mainly see it in intensive care units. "Refeeding syndrome" is caused when people who have been starving for a long time or critically unwell adjust to this by altering their internal processes to manage the electrolytes which are critical to the functioning of our bodies, too little calcium or potassium can cause fatal cardiac arrhythmia's for example. If those people then eat loads of food it disrupts compensatory measures, further decreasing electrolytes and causes fatal arrhythmia's. It killed a lot of people after the liberation of the camps.
So to avoid this diet intake has to be increased slowly, ideally they'd have daily bloods taken and vitamin supplements, phosphate, magnesium given too.
In reality the cases of Refeeding Syndrome were limited and exceptional.
Rather than being from people desperately gorging themselves, it was almost always the result of the food given being too calorically dense and causing insulin and electrolyte problems
The reports from Ebensee are fascinating
The irony is that The descendants of these people are doing this exact same thing to the people of Gaza continuing the cycle. The same thing that the American freed slaves who returned to Africa. This human nature.
Give them a little finger they take the whole hand.
Really trying hard to regain our sympathy aren't they?
Those prisoners look healthy and well fed.😊
Ironic they're doing the same to Palestine now
These scenes are now happening in gaza... some day in the future we will look back and say we wish we were better

It's funny how easily people fall for antisemitic propaganda.
It's a common sentiment in Israel to look down on the Holocaust survivors. They are seen as weak for "allowing" themselves to be victimized by the Nazis.
There is no such place as "Palestine" you goof

Who cares
As bad as this looks, this was a hell of a lot better treatment than what the Russians were offering.
Especially the Russian prisoners. By order of Stalin, they were sent to Siberia for surrendering to the Germans.
