Majdanek this and that

[Booze]

That video was posted less than a year ago and he states a death count of 360,000.
He claims the men were stripped naked in another barrack before being brought to the bath house.

I was just letting it run looking for the undressing room so I could share a picture of the rafters with you.

I have no idea what that guy said, at all. (Short of a few words here or there)

I appreciate your help in clearing up my confusion.
I did find images of the undressing room from the museum's site and also saw the same in the video, needless to say you were 100% right.

So, this is the undressing room after the registration office next to the covered up entrance at the rear of the building, correct?

Correct

[Fred Ziffel]

The undressing room has never been claimed to be a homicidal gas chamber.

Even if there is a ceiling in it, I don't believe it has iron blue on it.

I'll have to watch a walkthrough.

Your frame capture may be from a different warehouse.

I need to review the source, if you can link it.

for B42 that is correct, never claimed as a GC

For B41 that room was until 2005 a claimed gas chamber. No longer now claimed as a GC
B41 undressing room and hair cut area was used for delousing because "A" and B1 in the bunker were turned into temp morgues

You are not going to get any truth told to you in these videos

I post a link to my Majdanek presentation, it is all there

Thanks Fred!

You are absolutely right about the undressing room in '41' of course. I either didn't know that, or had forgotten, but, you are on top of your stuff Sir.

[Fred Ziffel]

When the B41 undressing room was a delousing room, here are two possible paths to delouse men.

Also, there were a lot of dirty people and typhus in the camp, so when there were no women being bathed or processed, the men could have also used B42 is my speculation. Many more men in the camp than woman

I do not think there was much in the way of hangers due to volume. I say the dirty close were piled up and then processed by shit canning. or delousing or burning.

[Stubble]

The footage clearly shows hangers on lines.

Personal opinion, clothes in the undressing room were deloused at end of day overnight and the room was aired out before registration and bath and disinfection operations resumed the following day.

I don't think they were delousing in the facility while it was in use, because of the extreme hazard posed by such an operation.

[Fred Ziffel]

You are correct those are hangers hanging in a Majdanek type building. To me, what the narrator is saying and the layouts of the buildings just do not make sense.

If they air whatever out inside, then why the canopy? Canopy allows work hanging out clothes in rain or snow.

Look at the Dachau video “in orderly rows” at Dachau, they are outside airing out

If they air them out inside, then what about the HCN emitting from the deloused clothing? It seems to me workers will go inside the chamber with the gas mask on, and clear out the chamber, then hang whatever outside.

There are heat delousing closets inside B42 as you can see by arrows

The room in the video with hangers, seems to be the Undressing room of B42 to me due to the length of the room not the room in bath one in the video

I have 1000s of photos of Majdanek, this is the only one I have of B42 Dressing Room. It does look to resemble B41 Dressing Room.

They speak of an Iron Door, there are no iron doors inside B41, those 4 doors are with the bunker out back.

The video says one thing and the staff at Majdanek say other things

one more photo in the next posting to this

B42 dressing room

Fair.

I still stand behind any delousing done in the undressing room being done overnight, not during operation, because of the hazard presented by using the space for delousing during bath and disinfection operations.

I'm not 100% convinced that delousing took place there.
I leave open the possibility that Zyklon was used after the war as part of creating the gas chamber story.
As that story began to fall apart in came the delousing story.
But I'm not locked into any version.

Take note of the construction of the Shower Room North door. This door was made to seal with it’s construction characteristics is evidence of that. See Attached that I submitted to Mr. Hunt in a recent conversation.

There is only one of those sealable doors and all the rest are what I call Z Doors. You will see why when you look at the photo provided.

Majdanek was a rough camp since it was built from scratch. There were a lot of dirty people since the water and sewer systems where not connected in the barracks. People were washing themselves in a bucket and even melting snow for water. See Mattogno, Majdanek, Pages 62 to 63 for a German hygiene report on the camp in March 1943.

I worked on a construction site of a US Airforce base hospital in Japan. We had to make temporary barriers from our dirty dusty side and their clean areas. Call it improvise. And that is what the Germans could have been doing at B41 also.

Interesting
Can you provide the forum of where the delousing did take place at Majdanek? Photos appreciated
and
Why the Germans thought this was a good idea to do delousing at that spot?
