The holocaust also known as the Shoah, was the world war 2 genocide of the European Jews .Between 1941 and 1945. The prisoners were transported to the camps in a number of ways, usually by train but some people also walked if the camps were close and sometimes by truck . The journey to the camps usually takes several days although some transports could take weeks . The prisoners were not told the specific destination . Some prisoners were extremely tightly packed onto the transport so much that it was usually impossible to sit or kneel down . Conditions inside the transports were extremely inhumane and some lethal . The transports had barely any food or water , no toilets except from one bucket in the corner . There was an awful smell of vomit and urine and most transports had no windows .So unfortunately many prisoners died on route to the campus from dehydration , starvation or suffocation . When the prisoners would arrive to the camps they were separated into groups: female , male and children . Normally the regular clothing was taken away and replaced by a stripped uniform which depended on both the camp and the prisoner .
