They tried to cover up the mass killing but did not have time to burn most of the bodies. When the Soviet soldiers reached the camp on 28/09/1944, they found the bodies and in their pockets photographs and personal documents. Most of the (prewar) photographs show friends and relatives of the prisoners and attest to a world that was lost with the Nazi conquest. From...

Vilna, Poland. A photograph that belonged to Liba Gurevitz before the war.
Leiba was born in Vilna and he worked as a mechanic. He was shot dead in the Klooga Labor Camp on 19/09/1944. Klooga Labor Camp was the largest in Estonia. Most of the camp's inmates were from Vilna Ghetto. On 07-08/1944, with the start of the soviet campaign, most of the inmates were transferred to Stutthof Camp. In mid September, with the collapse of the German Front in Estonia, the Germans did not have enough time to remove the Jews from Klooga Labor Camp. On 19/09/1944 the inmates of the camp were taken to a forest and shot. On that day 2,400 Jewish inmates were murdered with 100 Soviet...
