* [[Liberation of Dachau]] -- [[Kaufering Babies]]
 
The ''Schwanger Kommando'' was a group of seven pregnant, Hungarian Jewish women imprisoned in one of the Kaufering sub-camps of Dachau in December 1944. Though pregnant women and their babies were almost never permitted to survive, this group was allowed to bear their children, possibly as a bargaining chip for their SS overseers to use when the Allies conquered Germany. They were forced to work in the prisoners’ laundry. Despite appalling sanitary conditions and the lack of food and heat, all seven mothers gave birth to healthy babies between February and April 1945, with the assistance of Jewish dottor [[Erno Vadasz]] (M / Hungary, 1890-1957). As late as 13 March 1945, the head SS camp physician issued an order for the mothers to be transferred from Dachau to the Bergen-Belsen death camp. Thankfully the order was not carried out. The last baby he delivered was born one day after demolition of the crematorium, on April 29, 1945. All seven mothers (and their babies) were liberated in Dachau by the American Army, in satisfactory condition, in May 1945.
